«always thinking ahead ? two or three innings ahead. Whitey Herzog was a terrific baseball mind, and nobody's better than Bobby Cox.»
«You're missing someone who should be high on the list. Al Lopez knew pitching. He knew when a guy was losing it. He didn't take the pitcher out after he lost the lead; he took him out before he lost it. He was a catcher and knew the game. He's first on my list.»
«No Cheering in the Press Box,»
