昨天看到Baseball Prospectus的The Week in Quotes，有一段Bill
Lee（前Boston投手）對於Don Zimmer-Pedro Martinez衝突的評論，
非常的辛辣。
"Maybe it knocked some sense into him... It's pretty hard to
grab a bowling ball by the ears."
--Bill Lee, former Red Sox pitcher, on Zimmer (AP)
"What amazes me is that he didn't bounce... I would have been
sure he was full of helium."
--Lee
老實說，當看到這兩段話時我嚇了一跳，這種發言太離譜了。然後我
想起來這兩個人之間好像有一段歷史，看看他們的生涯交集，Zimmer
的確當過Bill Lee的manager。
下一件事當然是翻出Zimmer的自傳來找，東西還不少，只寫一小段Zim
對於Bill Lee的評論：
Bill Lee was a good pitcher from 1973-75 when he won 17 games
each year. Then he hurt his arm in that fight with the Yankees
and he was no longer a good pitcher. He was also not a good
person. He's the only man I've ever known in baseball who I
wouldn't let in my house, and I don't care who knows it. There
was nothing funny about the things he said about people. They
were hurtful and mean-spirited. I saw later that dumb remark
he made in a magazine about putting marijuana on his pancakes.
It was a typical remark from the jerk that he was.
這是他的自傳第126-127頁出來的。
我以前看過還記得的就是那句"He's the only man I've ever known
in baseball who I wouldn't let in my house." XD
