"I remember two things (about playing in the 1962 All-Star Game). When I was growing up I admired Stan Musial. In those days both teams stayed at the same hotel. Well I come out of the hotel getting on the bus to go to the park and who's looking right at me? Stan Musial. I got to sit next to him on the bus and we talked. The other thing I remember is that I got into the game and came up to hit and the pitcher for the National League is Bob Shaw. I got a real funny feeling because I didn't want to hit against him. He was my friend and my teammate for a number of years." - Jim Landis (Jim Landis Interview, Baseball Almanac, Mark Liptak)
