Mr Bruner's answer in 1:34 is one of the most beautiful lines I've ever heard , so correct, on the spot, Mr Paige was a Champion in the whole sense of the word.

Oh, to have a time machine, and watch this giant of a man pitch just one game. That would be awesome!!! I went to Cooperstown, for Clemente's induction and remember his plaque being pointed out by my father, telling me this man was the greatest and most outrageous pitcher there ever was.

Man! Now, that was a legend in his own time! I am sorry he was held back from competition in MLB for so long. However, at least he did get his day in the sun.... there were many that went before him that NEVER realized the dream of playing in the MLB. Now, if Mr Paige had never been able to play in the majors..... that would TRULY be a shame! RIP Mr. Paige.... he was an inspiration for us all.

When he got elected to the Hall, they were going to put his plack in a separate corridor. No kidding. There was an uproar, and they thought better of it. He once had a 2-1 lead with the bases loaded, no outs, bottom of the 9th. He called in the outfielders to the infield. Struck out the rest of the side.

I saw him pitch in Williston, North Dakota in ‘60 or ‘61. He was barnstorming with a team and played guys from town (some former minor leaguers and some local athletes). One of the local players was teenage Phil Jackson (you should recognize that name). I still remember the loudness of his pitches hitting the catcher’s glove.

If I recall correctly nobody got a hit. I do remember in one inning he waived in the outfielders and pithed with only a first and third baseman.

Satchel loves to mess with the facts -- to wit here: He cites that his first Major League game was in '42 (3:50). HA! Just six years off ... A true legend -- and representative of the great shame MLB Commissionar Kenesaw Mountain Landis brought down on the game by colluding with the owners to keep blacks out of the Majors.

He could throw hard but most of the comments about Paige by his peers were about his control and ability to hit spots in all parts of the zone. He was smart and he knew how to pitch but his execution was what hitters remember.

Unless you're Satchel Page. Read your history. He'd pitch every day for weeks at a time while barnstorming. Pitch both games of a double header or one game in one town and another in another town on the same day. It's literally unbelievable how he did it, but he did.
