"Robin Yount has an adventure-serial name and choir-boy looks and may well be the finest motorcycle-racing, golf-playing baseball player ever to emerge from the playgrounds of Woodland Hills, California. He comes across as the classic hero of Ralph Henry Barbour fiction: the lean, humble, gracefully athletic Superkid who leaped from prep school to the major leagues in a single bound." - Sportswriter Jeff Prugh of the Los Angeles Times in Baseball Digest (November 1974)
