"I'd sure loved to have swung against today's lively ball. Yes, with my 52-ounce bat. . . . Many hitters are swinging for the fences instead of choking up. Of course, homers are nice. But I'll take a good .300 hitter who can get on base often. You can't drive in many runs batting .225 no matter how many homers you hit." — Frank "Home Run" Baker
