"I could catch (Billy) Hoeft with a fielder's glove. Although he's fast, he throws a 'light' ball that makes it easy on the catcher. Al Aber, another leftie [sic] on our staff, is tough to catch because he throws a 'heavy' ball." - Detroit Tigers Catcher Frank House in Sport (June 1956, Tommy Devine)
