"The last time a pure home run hitter swung a bat for the Cubs at Wrigley Field, his personality wasn't the question. Ernie Banks' disposition came drenched in sunshine. One-Stroke Magic returned to Wrigley Field this spring in the person of lean and hungry David Arthur Kingman. He is an unquestionable slugging talent with a puzzling psyche marked 'fragile' and sure to be handled with care. The past is his bane." - Columnist Brian Hewitt in the Chicago Sun Times (Baseball Digest, July 1978)
