"As a kid I threw the out-curve, and in-curve, and drop - a slider. My hero was the Yanks' Red Ruffing. He had this great windup, would pick his left leg up, and keep it high in the air. I said, 'I'm going to pitch like him.' So I did one day in Coney Island, picked up that leg, and fell right on my ass." - Singer Robert Merrill in What Baseball Means to Me: A Celebration of Our National Pastime (Curt Smith, Grand Central Publishing, 05/06/2002, Page 134)
