	ESPN.com: MLB - Olney: Reluctant legend
		Eddie Murray will be relieved when his induction speech is over Sunday, when the handshakes end and his membership into the Hall of Fame becomes old news.
		Murray would finish his career with 504 homers, 3,255 hits, 1,917 RBI, a.287 batting average, and six seasons of 100 or more RBI in an era when the club of 100-RBI hitters was much more exclusive than it is today.
		Murray, then, would hit as if he was behind in the count, or beaten by a pitch -- and swing late, or flick his wrists at a pitch just off the edge of the strike zone.

	Great big stick. (Cleveland Indians' Eddie Murray)(Cover Story) - The Sporting News - HighBeam Research (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Murray suddenly -- and characteristically -- appears at exactly B.P. time in the corner of the dugout, obscured by a shadow and all by himself, a bat nestled in his crotch and wrapping white tape around the forefingers of each hand -- as always, unhurried, supremely untouched by the outside world.
		Eddie Clarence Murray was born in 1956 in East Los Angeles, a fertile baseball breeding ground that produced the likes of Reggie Smith, Bob Watson and Dock Ellis, and close enough to Watts that, during the '65 riots, bullets ricocheted off a water tower next to the Murray house and onto the front lawn.
		Murray played four years in the O's bushes, moving up a level every step of the way, but amazingly didn't start hitting lefthanded until the last week of his third season, at Double-A Asheville in 1975, when he was 19.

		In the strike shortened 1981 season, Murray tied for the A.L. lead in home runs (22) with Bobby Grich, Dwight Evans and Tony Armas and led the league outright with 78 RBIs, which oddly enough would be the only time he would lead the league in a major offensive category besides bases on balls.
		Almost overnight, Murray found himself held accountable for the club's sudden turn of fortune and was tagged as a souring influence in the clubhouse and a player who never hustled.
		Murray's return turned the season around for the underachieving Orioles, who went on a second half tear to grab the American League's wildcard spot and upset the Indians in the playoffs before bowing out to the eventual World Champion Yankees.
