Yeah, like I said, in High School you never knew where his pitch was going

and that article they mention his wildness in college being a negative or positive. I looked at it as a positive. I know guys who were actually afraid to get into the box when he was pitching. If he hit you, you would know it. Usually I rail constantly about walks, but with Billy if he walked you chances were very good the only way you got to second was because of another walk or wild pitch. Not many people put bat on ball against him.

I'm familiar with a lot of his stats, and it chaps me he's not a HOF guy (maybe it's because I know him). I just don't get it.
