"Why they remember that (After Tigers pitcher Bob 'Sugar' Cain walked pinch hitter / midget Eddie Gaedel on four pitches, St. Louis Browns manager Zack Taylor sent Jim Delsing in to pinch run.) more than anything, I don't know. Jim was a good teammate to have on your ballclub. He was a very good fielder and a good ballplayer." - St. Louis Browns Teammate Don Lenhardt (St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Keith Schildroth, 05/06/2006)
