"He (Hank Small) attacked everybody. He was such an intimidating force at the plate. He had such an aggressive style of hitting. You may get him on one pitch, but the next one he would hit the ball so hard. People were scared of him. He was strong. He was big. With aluminum bats, he didn't have to pull everything. He could drive the ball anywhere." - Teammate / Pitcher Earl Bass in 'USC's First Home Run King Dies' (Neil White and Ron Morris, 03/05/2010)
