Real Surprise: He's No Loser, This Young Met
The Tennessean, August 27, 1967
Tennessee sportswriter Bud Burns expresses surprise that the "hapless expansion" Mets (in their sixth season) have a quality player in Bud Harrelson. Burns doesn't seem to appreciate defensive skills. He says that Harrelson's "lowly" batting average "overshadows anything else he had ever done."
