From article page edit
Someone added "he was born in Harrisburg PA." Any research available either way? - David Gerard (talk) 19:24, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
Millan incident? edit
He is remembered by many fans for a play in which he slid hard into second against the New York Mets' Felix Millan. Millan took exception with the slide and tagged Ott in the face with the ball in his closed hand. Ott immediately picked Millan up and slammed him hard onto the ground. Millan landed on his shoulder, was injured, and was never again the same player.
Removed until I can find confirmation when/if this incident occured. Using Baseball-Reference.com, I can find no instance of Millan leaving a game against Ott's Pirates due to injury. RMc (talk) 18:31, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
