Great quotes: “Greatness doesn’t retire — it evolves. Growth doesn’t have an expiration date because dreams don’t come with a pitch clock. And because it’s never too late to show the next generation what follow-through looks like.”
As if Hawkins ever needed to worry about a pitch clock! Man taught half the Mets staff the art of the quick-pitch.

Daisuke Matsuzaka, OTOH (a similar Early-Westheim-vintage Met), would have been flummoxed by a pitch-hourglass. One of only a few recipients of the Steve Trachsel Memorial Sundial, thankfully.
