Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"(Alan) Zinter, 47, was the Cleveland Indians' minor league hitting coordinator from 2012-14 before coaching for the Astros. He was a hitting coach in the D-backs’ minor league system from 2008-11, originally hired by current Astros manager and former Padres assistant general manager A.J. Hinch. Zinter’s playing career was an illustration of both perseverance and passion for the game. The first baseman and catcher spent 19 seasons in the minors and parts of two in the majors." - Contact Reporter Dennis Lin in The San Diego Tribune (11/16/2015, Zinter expected to be Padres hitting coach, Source)
