Quotes by Bill Pennington (?)

“In the mid-1970s, players did not fraternize before games; in fact, oftentimes they genuinely did not like each other or resented one another’s success. It was before the modern big-money era of baseball when the players, each flush with cash and the accouterments of prosperity, began treating each other as coworkers and comrades in a billion-dollar enterprise.”
― Bill Pennington, Billy Martin: Baseball's Flawed Genius
