Fix your eye on the ball from the moment the pitcher holds it in his glove. Follow it as he throws to the plate and stay with it until the play is completed. Action takes place only where the ball goes.

It ain't nothing till I call it.

In my heart, I never called one wrong.

Baseball is more than a game to me, it's a religon.

That guy in a twenty-five cent bleacher seat is as much entitled to know a call as the guy in the boxes. He can see my arm signal even if he can't hear my voice.

Baseball is more than a game to me, it's a religion.

To me, baseball is not a game, but a religion.
