Youve got to have a lot better stuff to be a loser than a winner. A 2 whole pot full of guys win 20 games every year. A loser comes along only once every decade.

Dr. Arhn caLmlv put on his operating uniform, gold and brown with the big number 22 on the back, laced up his cleats, pul on his glasses, went to his work tray and got ready to operate. Patient No. 1 was Davey Lopes, a second baseman by profession, with a bad overbite' on a curved ball. This, Dr. Arhn assured him, won't hurt a bit. It was a curved ball. Davey Lopes overbit.

Dentistry tried to discourage him, I guess because they figured anybody who could throw a curveball past Henry Aaron w'ould be too clumsy or careless to be a dentist. Personally, I would figure anybody with fingers that can throw a curving spheroid nine inches to An later, it was another triumph for American dentistry. And it was painless. The Dodgers didn't feel a thing. Come back in a month, Dr. Arlin told them, stuffing his glove m his back pocket as he walked off the mound. Said the Dodgers Billy Buckner: Thats the first time in my life Ive been worked on by a dentist that he didnl send me a bill. On the 11 oclock news, Ross Porter commented, Now, the Dodgers are getting beat by dentists. Dr. Steve Arlm, who shut out the Dodgers on three hits that mglli,' tv a very unusual fellow for baseball.
