They Said It

? Bill Mazeroski, Pittsburgh Pirate second baseman, playing third base for the first time in his 16-year career: "It's like learning to write with your left hand."

?Peaches Bartkowicz, pro tennis player, asked how she likes the tie-breaker scoring system now in use: "I don't know; I never get that far."

?Joe O'Donnell, Buffalo Bill guard, chuckling over the new NFL policy of announcing over the public address system the name of the player on whom a penalty is assessed: "Since I've been in pro football, starting in 1964, I estimate I've been called for holding six or eight times. I could have been called 200 times."
