"It is 'off with the old and on wild the new.... as soon as [a player] begins to derogate in his work, a cry is set up for someone to take his place…. One exception to that was 'Bid' McPhee, the Cincinnati second baseman…. In an open letter to Cincinnati fans in 1900, Mc Phee announced his voluntary retirement because '… my presence on the team would only handicap its chances.' The club, he said, gave him permission to stay as long as he liked, which was a warm tribute to a man who was most proud of the fact that he had not once been fined or ejected for misconduct." - Author David Quentin Voigt in American Baseball (1966)
