	The Night-Born - Section II (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		When Dave was shown into the private office, he was still in the belligerent frame of mind, but when he saw a large fair man whirl in a revolving chair from dictating to a stenographer to face him, Dave's demeanor abruptly changed.
		That was as far as Dave got, for at that moment he witnessed a transformation and found himself gazing into the same unspeakably ferocious blue eyes of the night before, at the same clutching talon-like hands, and at the same formidable bulk in the act of springing upon him.
		Instead, Dave felt the other's body stiffen as with an iron restraint, and then he was flung aside, without effort but with such force that only the wall stopped his momentum and dropped him gasping to the floor.

		Dave assessed the situation, decided he would show them who was the boss, and announced that he was going to Tory Hill for some wasp spray.
		Dave moved his operation to the next section of trench to the south of me, having mined out the section to the north.

	Maury Wills for the Hall of Fame? - NetShrine Discussion Forum
		I would not agree with that, as Bancroft played in a mega-hitters era, so his.279 BA is not as impressive as it appears, and, IMO, there are a significant # of shortstops better than Bancroft who are not, and never will be, in the HOF.
		Actually, Bancroft's career was split between deadball and lively ball, and in the lively ball era, he played for four years in Braves Field, one of the worst HR parks ever.
		Bancroft was pretty much the standard of excellence with the glove, the way Ozzie was, I think.

		A graceful, quick-handed shortstop for several National League squads, Dave Bancroft developed a reputation as a solid, if unspectacular, lead-off hitter.
		The switch-hitting Bancroft was also known for his intelligence on the field and his fiery leadership in the dugout.
		Nicknamed “Beauty” for his habit of shouting the term on each good pitch to the opposition as a minor league player, Bancroft is still considered to be among the top fielders in baseball history.

	BBTF's Hall of Merit Discussion :: Pee Wee Reese
		That's not bad since Bancroft is about an inch short of Sewell, and Sewell is among the top 30 each year (I think, I didn't check my facts, but you get the idea).
		Bancroft started later and ended later, so the comparison by age isn't quite so neat, but with three years added to his prime, Reese overgoes Bancroft by a considerable margin also.
		Reese IS well behind Bancroft and Sewell by many measures; IF you refuse to adjust for league strength at all.

	Fernando Valenzuela - Los Angeles Dodgers Fernando Valenzuela
		Although his rookie success continued all the way to the World Series, when he won his start against Dave Righetti in a matchup of rookies, it would not always be so easy.
		In April 1986, he became the first to win Pitcher of the Month honors despite a losing record when he went 2-3 with a 0.21 ERA en route to setting a new major league record of 44.1 consecutive innings without an earned run at the start of a season.
		After Valenzuela whiffs Dave Winfield, Reggie Jackson, and George Brett in the 4th inning, Gooden, the youngest All-Star ever at age 19, fans Lance Parrish, Chet Lemon, and Alvin Davis in the 5th.

		I gather that playing with Hornsby was a little like playing with Dracula, that you're in awe of his talents and you're glad he's on your side, but you really don't want him to stick around for very long.
		After Hornsby, the best infielder was either Charlie Hollocher, Dave Bancroft, or Frankie Frisch.
		Hollocher had slightly better numbers (and struck out only 5 times!), but Frisch and Bancroft both played for the pennant-winning Giants, and Bancroft was a superior defensive player.

		Dave Bancroft possessed quick hands, moved gracefully in any direction and excelled at fielding bad-hop ground balls.
		While in the minors, his habit of shouting ''Beauty'' on each good pitch to the opposition resulted in that becoming his nickname.
		After his trade to the Giants in 1920, he profited from John McGraw's batting instruction and earned accolades from J.G. Taylor Spink Award winner Frank Graham "as the greatest shortstop the Giants ever had and one of the greatest that ever lived."
