"More power to Richardson. Records are made to be broken and I think the little guy is making one helluva showing. But I'm really surprised at the way the Pirates are pitching him. They're keeping the ball up on him and in Chicago we never pitch him high. That homer he hit with the bases full in the third game was on a high fast ball that was in on him. And both those triples he hit yesterday were on high fast balls. We keep the ball down on him and away."
