He was a catcher who couldn't hit. He was best known for his arm.

(Utley) still had enough to take the catcher out. That was the best part of it. He'll get down and dirty.

He's been the best catcher we've had in the 15 years I've been here. He brings that smartness to the game as well. He really calls the whole game and he handles our pitching staff well.

He's a great catcher from what I hear. With Gregg Zaun, we have two of the best catchers in the league.

I hated to bat against Drysdale. After he hit you he'd come around, look at the bruise on your arm and say, 'Do you want me to sign it?'

You have to let Edmonds hit the ball. You can't walk him and [catcher] Brad [ Ausmus ] knows that ... and that was a mistake.
