The Pitches He Threw
Stone had a unique method for calling pitches while he was on the mound. He called them himself.
"he was the only pitcher to give the signs to the catcher," teammate Manny Trillo recalled. "Wherever he put his glove, wherever he put his hand - that was the pitch. It was funny."
