"In 1939, the Yankees promoted the super-prospect they'd kept down in the minors for a few years. His name was Charlie Keller, a short (5-foot-10) but powerfully built outfielder with eyebrows that had been borrowed from a passing lowlands gorilla. Lefty Gomez said Keller didn't look like he'd been scouted, he looked like he'd been trapped." - Sportscaster Steven Goldman on YES Network (11/29/2004)
