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

All that analysis is well and good, but what I need right now is a left-handed batter who can hit the ball over the shortstop's head.

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

He (Babe Ruth) was very brave at the plate. You rarely saw him fall away from a pitch. He stayed right in there. No one drove him out.

My health is good enough about the shoulders.

Whenever I decided to release a guy, I always had his room searched first for a gun. You couldn't take any chances with some of them birds.

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