Quote of the day: Nellie Fox

Hall of Fame second baseman Nellie Fox, owner of 2,161 singles and only 35 career home runs in 19 seasons, on hitting with power or lack thereof:

“No one had to tell me I was never going to be a home run hitter. I was hitting the same ball as the rest of the players, but when the big guys cracked one, it went out of the park. Mine went out of the infield.”
