"I had a lot of admiration for (Rogers) Hornsby, particularly his hitting. And I think he was a good manager too. You know, he was a real good thinking baseball man. I sat in hotel lobbies in New York. Sometimes the Cardinals would be coming in there. It was later when I was scouting, you know. And Hornsby, he would sit there and talk to you, baseball all night. But don't change the subject! He was strictly baseball. He was a dedicated baseball man. He wouldn't go to a movie because he was afraid that the flickers could affect his eyesight. Maybe some of the rest of us shouldn't have gone! But I don't think we'd have all hit like Hornsby." - Clyde Sukeforth in a Mike Shatzkin BaseballLibrary.com Interview (September 19, 1993)
