Take Me Out to the Brain Game - SBNation.com


The go-to phrase from Moneyball. Dyktra was going to "stick" future Hall of Famer Steve Carlton in a spring training game, when all the other rookies had stars in their eyes. Classic.

Take Me Out to the Brain Game - SBNation.com:
“Lenny didn’t let his mind screw him up. The physical gifts required to play pro ball were, in some ways, less extraordinary than the mental ones. Only a psychological freak could approach a 100-mph fastball aimed not far from his head with total confidence.”
- Michael Lewis, Moneyball
