"Said Mussina, 'There's never been any wiggle room, not for one pitch.' And on this steamy, wet South Florida night (during Game 3), New York would have been getting no-hit by Josh Beckett if not for the new Mr. October, Derek Jeter. Baseball reverts to the Dead Ball era when (Mike) Mussina pitches." - Sportswriter Tom Verducci in Sports Illustrated Presents (World Champs : 2003 Florida Marlins, 2003) |

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."
