Dan, this doesn't pertain to your "Well done!" quote, but rather your Ken Singleton quote. As a lifelong Orioles fan, I happen to know where that "walk with the bases loaded" quote originated because I read it in the Sporting News around 1971. I can't recall for sure which player it was (I believe it was Paul Blair), but there was a Christian on the team who had at one time admonished Earl Weaver to "Walk with the Lord." Weaver's reply was, "I'd rather walk with the bases loaded." So it originated with Earl and not Kenny.
