"As soon as we get the next out, I want you to say something inspiring to fire us up," said (Ken) Aspromonte. Before the Indians got the third out, however, Boston scored nine runs. "I've got just the right thing to say," Lis told Aspromonte. "Are you crazy?" said Aspromonte. "We're behind, 11-2." "I know," said Lis. "Here's the pep talk: Our Father, Who are in heaven..." - Sportswriter Dan Coughlin in Baseball Digest (April 1976, Page 36)
