We was going to get you a birthday cake, but we figured you'd drop it.

They say Yogi Berra is funny. Well, he has a lovely wife and family, a beautiful home, money in the bank, and he plays golf with millionaires. What's funny about that?

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

You can't go out to the mound, hobbling and take a pitcher out with a cane.

They said it couldn't be done, but sometimes it doesn't work out that way.

There's nobody on my ball club that doesn't go from first to third on a base hit, or from second to home. Every time you steal a base, you're taking a gamble on getting thrown out, and taking the bat out of the hitter's hand.

If anybody needs me, I'm in my room being embalmed.
