Several years ago, after a golf tournament, Tommy Lasorda was the guest speaker at our club. He started by saying.. "Well I guess you read lately about Steve Yeager crying his eyes out to the sportswriters that Mike Scioscia gets to play ahead of him because he's(Scioscia) Italian. I want you all to know that is not true. I play Scioscia ahead of Yeager because I'M ITALIAN!!"

I just finished reading Ball Four again...love that book. My favorite quote is from Sibby Sisti after the kids beat the dads in a Father-Son game, 40-0, on an off day. "Forty runs, for crissakes, and nobody gets knocked down."
