"(Sparky) Lyle explains that when he first joined the Yankees, he was paired with catcher John Ellis, who had the habit of spitting tobacco juice on the floor between their beds. 'One night I woke up and stepped right in it and that was enough,' Lyle says. 'The next night I put in a chew and spit on the floor where he would get up. In the morning he did and . . . we reached an understanding." - Sportswriter Roger Rubin on NYDailyNews.com ("Riding Baseball's Road to Nowhere Trip Never Ends for Homeless Independent Team", 08-17-1998, Source)
