"No man has ever been a perfect ballplayer. Stan Musial, however, is the closest thing to being perfect in the game today. I’ve seen greater hitters and greater runners and greater fielders, but he puts them all together like no one else…He’s certainly one of the greatest players of all time. In my book he’s a better player than Joe DiMaggio was in his prime. Stan Musial will score from first on a single…He’ll go after a ball, even in an exhibition game, diving for a shoestring catch, as if the World Series depended on it. He’s my kind of ball player."
