"Not so long ago Dicky Kerr was a professional boxer out in Milwaukee. He was a bantam and could take a beating and give one. Instead of a wild lefthander shaking with stage fright in the face of Redland troupe (during Game 3), Kerr looked them over with nerves of chilled steel." - New York Times (October 4, 1919)

Fred Schwed, Jr., in How to Watch a Baseball Game (1957) wrote our favorite baseball box score quote, "The baseball box score is the pithiest form of written communication in America today. It is abbreviated history. It is two or three hours (the box score even gives that item to the minute) of complex activity, virtually inscribed on the head of a pin, yet no knowing reader suffers from eyestrain."
