“He looks and talks like he just fell off Edgar Bergen's lap. [on Gerald Ford]”
David Steinberg
“I think he realizes what they are doing. I talked to [hitting coach] Gerald Perry and he thinks he's starting to come around. But I just thought it was good to give him the day off.”
Ken Macha
“In the Bob Hope Golf Classic, the participation of President Gerald Ford was more than enough to remind you that the nuclear button was at one stage at the disposal of a man who might have either pressed it by mistake or else pressed it deliberately in order to obtain room service.”
Clive James
“Gerald [Perry] likes the guy's stroke. He's a bright guy and knows a lot about the game.”
“I would say I'm very sympathetic toward Gerald. He has exactly the same thing going on on his side. I'm every bit on pins and needles. I've got a lot of logistical things that would have to be altered (if the tournament got a March date).”
Jay Overton
“We go into Spring Training and the season with catching as one of our strengths. With Rod, Gerald [Laird] and the number of guys we have coming behind them, I like the situation.”
Jon Daniels
“Gerald is the eternal optimist who has what could be perceived as a handicap -he can't speak - but he figures out clever ways to communicate ideas so he doesn't let it stop him. He goes through life with rose-colored glasses and doesn't think 'I can't.' I think that's a great character to put out there for kids.”
