"(Art) Houtteman has the weapons for which pitchers sweat years. He has a 'live arm,' his sinker is deceptive, his curve sharp. But he has a tendency to get pitches 'too fat' after he has the batter at his mercy. One of the Yankees said last spring, 'Houtteman is the greatest two-strike pitcher in the majors. But then he starts messin' around, tryin' to be cute, and the first thing you know he's loused up.'" - Sportswriter Whitey Lewis in Sport (November 1954)
