"One time, Kirby Higbe hit our Tommy Holmes ,and we had to throw at somebody. I asked who they had coming up in the next inning, and they said, 'Kiner, Greenberg and Gustine.' Well, now, Ralph Kiner is 6-4 and 240, and Hank Greenberg is 6-5 and 240. I told them, 'I think I’ll go after (175-pound Frankie) Gustine.'" - Bill Voiselle in The State (Bob Spear, 10/23/2004)
