Sounds like something Satch would say. No, this was the era of artificial turf in the 70's. This fella wasn't a fan of fake grass, the media(or anyone else, for that matter).
Here's another one of my favorite quotes of his: " I'll play first, third, left . I'll play anywhere--- except Philadelphia ."

Reds hitters continue to not realize the pitcher is trying to get them to do something…they forget they are trying to rally outs
The Cubs may have got out of another jam with a DP, but in roughly a century when they win their next WS this will be forgotten.

I never expected Cessa to be this terrible

Luis Cessa gives up a 2 run homer to Contreras.
I hate it but my fantasy team loves it.
I think it’s safe to say Cessa has been a bust this year

If he was still with the Yankees he would be just fine. They turn manure into good there. Have you seen the garbage and retreads they have putting up 0s daily. Never getting tired or overworked it seems. No bullpen anywhere is this bad as here. It can’t all be the pitchers either.
