“I’ll tell you what’s amazing: The sound of Rey (Ordonez) feet moving after a ball. I can hear his spikes moving through the dirt. It’s a very distinctive sound, like nothing I’ve ever heard before. There have been times when a ball has been hit to my left and I’ll think, I can reach that with a dive. But I can hear Rey’s feet moving so quickly that I know he can get it. So I don’t dive, and he’s there. He closes ground better than anyone I’ve ever seen.”
– ROBIN VENTURA ON REY ORDONEZ (2000)
