Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"As an administrative oversight, the Pittsburgh Pirates failed to register such a designation for (Hal) Carlson, and use of the spitball was forever lost to him. To offset that handicap, he polished a standard technique: fast ball, curve and change of pace." - Rockford Journal (April 2, 1926)
