If I'd just tried for them dinky singles I could've batted around .600.

I didn't mean to hit the umpire with the dirt, but I did mean to hit that bastard in the stands.

Well, the good Lord and good luck must have been with me because I did exactly what I said I was going to do.

How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball... The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I've got. I hit big or I miss big. I like to live as big as I can.

I hit an inside-the-park home run! I beat it out! Can you believe that?

The way a team plays as a whole determines its success.

I don't give a damn about any actors. What good will John Barrymore do you with the bases loaded and two down in a tight ball game. Either I get the money (more than Barrymore), or I don't play!
