Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"I hope I die on the field. I hope when I walk to change the pitcher, I drop dead and that's it. I know my family would be so happy that it happened on the field. They wouldn't feel bad because that's what I’ve always wanted to do." - Ozzie Guillen in the Chicago Tribune (Rick Morrissey, 'White Sox's Guillen: Let me die on the field', 02/26/2009, Source) [Ozzie Guillen Quotes]
