Honestly, at one time I though Babe Ruth was a cartoon character. I really did, I mean I wasn't born until 1961 and I grew up in Indiana.

He always seemed to come through with big hits and big plays. He was a tough guy to get out, and more than anything, you really didn't want Kirby up with the game on the line or really anytime with men on base.

I don't want to look back and be looking at three or four teams and what they're doing. We still have to keep our eyes on Boston.

This guy is working all week and he brings his son to this show, has to pay $2 to get in, maybe $5 for a picture and then $6 for an autograph. These guys have to think you're a real ass with your head down all the time signing.

I'd like to say this was our worst game. Unfortunately, I can't.
