Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"I have a lot of respect for them (the 2005 Los Angels Angels of Anaheim). Their team plays the game the right way. It's hard to play against them because they raise the bar so high. We have to figure how to get better than them, Oakland and maybe Seattle." - Texas Rangers Manager Buck Showalter on MLB.com (Mike Scarr, 10/02/2005)
