"Hank Borowy was the kind of pitcher who sent batters back to the bench muttering, 'He's got nothing. He won't be around the next time I hit.' He pitched a one-hitter against us and that's when I learned to be leery whenever I heard batters talk that way." - Rex Barney in 'Thank Youuuu for 50 Years in Baseball' (Barney / Macht, 1993)
