"One year (I) hit fifty (but only got credit for forty-nine). I hit a ball into the center field bleachers of Fenway Park, and the ball bounced back out onto the field. The umpire said the ball hit off the outfield wall. Next day I asked Reggie Smith, who was playing center field for the Red Sox. I said, 'Reggie, did that ball get in the bleachers.' He just said, 'Oh, yeah.'" - Harmon Killebrew
