"What a great player (Jeff Bagwell). I've watched that guy battle early in the season from nowhere to where he is ready to do it (100 RBI season) again. He's in there every day. He plays so hard, you wish every one in the league played that hard. If our kids could have one role model, I would like for it to be him. I have nothing but respect for him." - Manager Jerry Royster
