"Once, in the early sixties, outfielder Mel Roach had misjudged Junior Gilliam's fly ball in the seventh inning, depriving (Warren) Spahn of what would have been back-to-back no-hitters. When Roach saw Spahn at a golf tournament in Richmond nearly thirty years later, the first thing he did was apologize. 'Geez, Mel,' Spahn said, 'that was a lifetime ago. Forget it.' But Roach hadn't forgotten, and neither had Spahn." - Author David Lamb in Stolen Season : A Journey Through America and Baseball's Minor Leagues (1991)
