"I had three balls and one strike on me, and Ned Hanlon yelled, 'Make him pitch to you, Hans.' Well, if Hanlon called your first name, that meant to hit. So as soon as I heard 'Hans' I knew I was to hit the next pitch. (Orval) Overall let go with a high fast one and it hit me smack on the temple. I thought I was down about five seconds, but it was about ten minutes. Even so, when I came to, I had to stay in the game. They didn't have anybody else to put in." - Hans Lobert in The Glory of Their Times (Lawrence S. Ritter, 1984)
