"I was pitching one day when my glasses clouded up on me. I took them off to polish them. When I looked up to the plate, I saw Jimmie Foxx. The sight of him terrified me so much that I haven't been able to wear glasses since." - Lefty Gomez in The Story of the Oakland Athletics (Gordon Pueschner, Creative Education Publishers, 07/2007.
