"Greek George finally got a 90-day suspension for pushing Umpire Joe Rue, but that didn't necessarily win him his place here. I pick him for his ability to do three things at one time: catch, umpire and second guess the play of his teammates. George also was the only player who ever get me fined. I got fed up with his superior attitude about his vocabulary, and showed him I could top it. He reported what I said to his club president, who reported it to the league and I was fined twenty-five dollars. It was worth it." - Hall of Fame Umpire Bill Summers in Baseball Digest (September 1960, 'What I didn't TELL during 27 YEARS of big league umpiring', Page 37)
