"Unlike my boyhood hero, Earl Averill, I'll never be voted into the Hall of Fame. But I had 15 enjoyable years and accomplished things that most players would like to achieve. Even though we lost the 1948 World Series to the Indians, I led both teams in hitting with a .389 average. And I played in three World Series in three different decades - with the Braves in 1948, the White Sox in 1959 and the Yankees in 1961." - Earl Torgeson in Baseball Digest (January 1978)
