Bad Quote by Chipper Jones
“I feel I got kind of a bad rap because people say I wasn't vocal, didn't talk. I was kind of in my own little world. If I'm watching a game and I'm trying to pick up every little advantage - see if the guy is actually tipping pitches - and I don't want to be bothered, then so be it. That's what made me the player that I was.”
