One of my favorite Oscar Gamble quotes happened when, during the mid-1970's, Gamble and his teammates were on the team bus and were passing by Anaheim Stadium. The "Big A" out in the parking lot announced that Nolan Ryan would be pitching for the Angels that night.
Gamble announced to his teammates on the bus:
"A good day today might be an 0-4 with 4 strikeouts and not get hit!"
