"To play on a team that wins the World Series is the biggest thrill you could have in baseball. I don't think anything could compare to it. Somebody can hit 50 home runs in a year - which is something I didn't do or even came close to. I don't know what that feels like. But, I can't imagine it being better than winning everything." - Gene Alley to Columnist Roy McHugh in Sport (March 1967, "Things Happening Quickly for Alley")
