My memory was it was Falstaff.

Never forget Dizzy making fun of hitters.

Dizzy was no slouch as hitter himself.

He’d say of .210 hitter, Pardner, that fella isn’t even hitting his weight.

I watch a lot of baseball and the Orioles have a statue regularly playing third who weighs 240 and I remember his batting average coming across the screen during a Yankee game last week and it was .157.

Your right, it was Falstaff. I thought Dizzy was a pitcher and had to retire because he blew out his arm. But as you can see my memory is not what I thought it was, lol.
