Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"The first time Braves manager Bobby Cox saw (Chipper) Jones, he knew he was going to be a star. 'That face,' Cox said. 'He has that face.' It is the face of a baseball lifer, a guy who was born to play the game. A baseball lifer doesn't necessarily mean playing until you're 45, then managing or coaching the rest of your life. It also means playing the game properly, doing what you're told, doing what's best for the team, adjusting constantly and, of course, winning." - ESPN Columnist Tim Kurkjian in ESPN: The Magazine (August 3, 2005)
