You have to have a catcher because if you don't you're likely to have a lot of passed balls.

I never saw anyone like Ty Cobb. No one even close to him as the greatest all-time ballplayer. That guy was superhuman, amazing.

Without losers, where would the winners be?

The Yankees don't pay me to win every day, just two out of three.

If you're playing baseball and thinking about managing, you're crazy. You'd be better off thinking about being an owner.

Amazing strength, amazing power - he (Ron Swoboda) can grind the dust out of the bat. He will be great, super even wonderful. Now, if he can only learn to catch a fly ball.

I don't like them fellas who drive in two runs and let in three.
