Tony La Russa On Taking Notes:
As La Russa manages, he makes little lists of opportunities lost and not lost; moments when maybe he could have stolen a run or prevented one. He learned how to keep a list from Dick Williams, the manager of the A’s when they won world championships in 1972 & 1973. Williams told him that if you don’t make notes about a game as it’s occurring and review them afterward, you will forget what happened, because of the daily grind of the season.
