"I'm amazed at Vosberg's memory. He not only recalls getting them out, but how, the kind of pitch he threw. 'I can't remember yesterday,' I say. 'How do you do that?' His answer touches on the key chemical in the DNA of every professional pitcher. 'When you get a guy out on a certain pitch, you have to remember it for next time,' (Ed) Vosberg says. 'If he gets you, you remember that, too. It's how you survive.'" - by Leo W. Banks on Tucson Weekly (06/18/2009, 'The Crafty Lefty: Tucson Toros pitching coach Ed Vosberg just can't give up the game', Source)
