(All quotes are from one and the same player)

"I knew when the ball was going out. It was something I worked into the decoy, but it used to tick the pitchers off. Bill Monbouquette used to say, 'Can't you at least make it look like you can catch it?' Meanwhile, the ball would be on its way over the fence to a spot three-quarters of the way out to the railroad tracks."

"The three-thousand hitting thing was the first time I let individual pressure get to me. I was uptight about it. When I saw the hit going through, I had a sigh of relief more than anything."

"And if I have my choice between a pennant and a triple crown, I'll take the pennant every time."

Time to get my name on this month's scoreboard...

My guess is Carl Yastrzemski.

Kind of risky, huh?

[chuckr37]

I agree sounds like Yaz.

Yup, it's Yastrzemski. I figured someone would get this fairly soon... but somehow I didn't expect it to be menyak... Oh well, I guess you knew I'd sneak Yaz in somehow. Nice one!
