Over at FanGraphs today, David Laurila interviewed former Mets, Expos, and Orioles player Ken Singleton, one of the YES Network’s many play-by-play/color commentors. They spoke mostly about Singleton as a player and his brand of plate discipline and on-base percentage (career .388 OBP), something he excelled at in an age when no one had really paid too much attention to it. “I’d rather be underrated than underpaid,” said Singleton. “Over the course of my career, I walked more than I struck out. I take pride in that.”
The interview, which you can read here, gets RAB’s highest level of recommendation. Make sure you check it out, it really is a great read.
