Morneau had an incredible game, but are you implying, by this award,
that he was betting on baseball or that he did something else, perhaps
equally nasty? I mean why would you want to tie this fine young
player to a guy who has been banned form baseball? You know how bad
it has to be for a guy to get banned from baseball?

Baseball has chosen to conveniently overlook the feat of 4,256 hits, a
record that will never be broken. 4,256 hits does more than suggest
excellence, it establishes it.

The Rose Committee chooses to acknowledge such a record. That is our
implication. That is what we have established.
