EVENT 8 Henceforth and Forever Free Agents! 1970-78; DRAFT!

Your statement corresponds to the following paragraph in the original article...

"It's like they had 15 guys with gloves out there," former Yankees pitcher Mel Stottlemyre said in 1985. "When our hitters came back to the dugout, they weren't cursing [Jim] Palmer, [Dave] McNally or [Mike] Cuellar. All you'd hear is 'Damn you, Blade [Belanger]' and 'I hate you, Brooks.' And Bobby [Murcer] always said you had to really pull the ball to keep it out of Blair's range."
