"If any small boy from Maine to California were asked this morning to name the greated pitcher in the world he would most likely say Phillippe, though he could not spell the name." - Sportswriter Frank M'Quiston in the Pittsburg [sic] Dispatch (October 7, 1903) |

Fred Schwed, Jr., in How to Watch a Baseball Game (1957) wrote our favorite baseball box score quote, "The baseball box score is the pithiest form of written communication in America today. It is abbreviated history. It is two or three hours (the box score even gives that item to the minute) of complex activity, virtually inscribed on the head of a pin, yet no knowing reader suffers from eyestrain."
