"The whole thing was my fault. I threw (Gary) Carter a slide in his first at-bat, and he crushed it. To me that one pitch changed the entire Series. Maybe if he doesn't hit that home run, I buckle down and win the game. Maybe..." - Al Nipper in Game 4 Postgame Interview (10/22/1986) |

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."
