"When I was up there at the plate, my purpose was to get on base anyway I could, whether by hitting or by getting hit." "Shoeless" Joe Jackson
In 1911 Jackson set the record for batting average by a rookie at .408. This record still stands today.
After a meaningless late-September afternoon game had left him with a grass-stained, dust covered uniform, Joe DiMaggio once was asked why he applied so much effort. Joe DiMaggio replied, "Because some fans in the crowd were seeing me for the first time,and I don't want to let them down."
