Sample Book Insights:

#1 I was eating deviled eggs in the Fenway Park visitor’s clubhouse in 1973 when I was confronted by Thurman Munson. He knew I loved to eat, but he also knew that I knew better than to take food out of his locker.

#2 I was having a very good spring in 1973, and I was coming off a pretty good season in 1972. But I pulled a hamstring during a spring training game, and the team decided to keep me on the team as a designated hitter.

#3 The first time I ever had to bat as the DH was in game one of the 1965 season. I hated hitting against Tiant, as he had a hundred different windups and release points, but I was happy to bring in a run and keep the inning going.

#4 I was eating my favorite food, deviled eggs, in the clubhouse when I was suddenly joined by Thurman. He was very annoyed to find me stuffing my face, as he thought I was due up again soon.
