Quote by Eddie Murray
When Ted Williams was here, inducted into the Hall of Fame 37 years ago, he said he must have earned it, because he didn't win it because of his friendship with the writers. I guess in that way, I'm proud to be in this company that way.
Summary
This quote reflects the speaker's pride in being inducted into the Hall of Fame based on their merits and not due to their personal connections with the media. They draw a parallel to Ted Williams, a legendary baseball player, who acknowledged that his induction was a result of his achievements rather than favoritism. By expressing their satisfaction in being grouped with individuals who earned their place in the same way, the speaker highlights the importance of meritocracy and personal accomplishment in achieving such recognition.
