"The most human baseball player ever, he went to the postseason galas because the beer was free. He was big, funny and marvelous. Upon first meeting the White Sox's diminutive Craig Grebeck, who wore No. 14 as did Hrbek, Hrbek told him 'you should put a slash between the 1 and 4 and you'd be 1/4th.' In retirement, and while sitting around the fire during a camping trip, Van Slyke said Hrbek played a tape recording of his best farts." - Tim Kurkjian in ESPN The Magazine (The Crazy & The Wacky, May 2004)
