"The toughest (two or three batters to get out) was probably Ted Williams but Mantle, Dickey, DiMaggio and Berra were also tough. Yogi was tough because he was a bad ball hitter. He would swing at anything so you never knew what to throw him. I would just throw strikes down the middle because that was as effective as anything else." - Virgil Trucks on Baseball Almanac (Harold Friend, 'Virgil Trucks Interview', Source)
