Bud Harrelson Is No Joke To New York Mets' Foes
Zanesville Times Recorder, July 21, 1968
A wire-service article from 1968 profiles Bud Harrelson. It opens with some Henny Youngman style jokes about Bud's light weight and goes on to describe some of the good-natured ribbing that Harrelson gets from his teammates. Bud also discusses his approach as a leadoff hitter.
