"He's (Devon White) the greatest in the world. He's just awesome, man. I mean, I've probably slowed down a little in center field, but I know how the position should be played. And he's just incredible. The way he plays it, he's so nonchalant.  You hit a ball and your thinking, 'No way he's going to get it.' The next thing you know he's standing there like this (glove at his chest). I've always loved the way the guy plays." - Kirby Puckett from Devon White: A 'Classic Glove' in Center Field (Steve Fainaru, Baseball Digest, March 1992)
