It's easy to get good players. Getting them to play together, that's the hard part.

Johnny Sain don't say much, but that don't matter much, because when you're out there on the mound, you got nobody to talk to.

You got to get twenty-seven outs to win.

I'm mad at him, too, for being out late. But I'm not mad enough to take a chance on losing a ball game and possibly the pennant.

Bobby Brown reminds me of a fellow who's been hitting for 12 years and fielding one.

I couldn't have done it without my players.

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