I've Been Saying It for Years

You may remember John Kruk’s famous quote when questioned about his physique: “I’m not an athlete,” Kruk said. “I’m a professional baseball player.”

Former Royal Jeff Conine couldn’t agree more.

“Baseball has probably the worst-conditioned athletes,” he told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. “Running around the bases four times and running down four to six baseballs is not physically taxing.”
