Baseball has been very good to me.
Roberto Clemente
The sheer quantity of brain power that hurled itself voluntarily and quixotically into the search for new baseball knowledge was either exhilarating or depressing, depending on how you felt about baseball. The same intellectual resources might have cured the common cold, or put a man on Pluto.
Michael Lewis
In our beautiful memoryWe were all handsomeWe could all singWe all had the heart Of the prettiest girl in townAnd we all hit .300
John Buck O'Neil
The great trouble with baseball today is that most of the players are in the game for the money and that's it, not for the love of it, the excitement of it, the thrill of it.
Ty Cobb
Being an umpire is like being a king. It prepares you for nothing.
Ron Luciano
Beside her, she can feel each breath he draws. How is it possible to be so close to a person and still not know what you are to each other? With baseball, it's simple. There's no mystery to what happens on the field because everything has a label -- full count, earned run, perfect game -- and there's a certain amount of comfort in this terminology. There's no room for confusion and Ryan wishes now that everything could be so straightforward. But then Nick pulls her closer, and she rests her head on his chest, and nothing seems more important that this right here.
Jennifer E. Smith
If you don't win, you're going to be fired. If you do win, you've only put off the day you're going to be fired.
Leo Durocher
It was Brooklyn against the world. They were not only complete fanatics, but they knew baseball like the fans of no other city. It was exciting to play there. It was a treat. I walked into that crummy, flyblown park as Brooklyn manager for nine years, and every time I entered, my pulse quickened and my spirits soared.
I never questioned the integrity of an umpire. Their eyesight, yes.
There are only five things you can do in baseball - run, throw, catch, hit, and hit with power.
Buy a steak for a player on another club after the game, but don't even speak to him on the field. Get out there and beat them to death.
When you're in a slump, it's almost as if you look out at the field and it's one big glove.
Vance Law
When they start the game, they don't yell, Work ball. They say, Play ball.
Willie Stargell
Trying to get a fast ball past Hank Aaron is like trying to get the sun past a rooster.
Curt Simmons
This is the second day now that I do not know the result of the juegos he thought. But I must have confidence and I must be worthy of the great DiMaggio who does all things perfectly even with the pain of the bone spur in his heel.
Ernest Hemingway
Hit em where they ain't.
Willie Keeler
If the people don't want to come out to the park, nobody's gonna stop them.
Yogi Berra
Catching a fly ball is a pleasure, but knowing what to do with it is a business.
Tommy Henrich
In the great department store of life, baseball is the toy department.

A baseball fan is a spectator sitting 500 feet from home plate, who can see better than an umpire standing five feet away.
