I only went to the third grade because my father only went to the fourth and I didn't want to pass him.

I can't tell you why there's a delay, but stick your head out of the window and you'll know why.

Anybody who's ever had the privilege of seeing me play knows that I am the greatest pitcher in the world.

A lot of folks that ain't saying 'ain't,' ain't eating.

Heck, if anybody told me I was setting a record (strikeouts in a game on July 30, 1933) I'd of got me some more strikeouts.

I'd get me a bunch of bats and balls and sneak me a couple of umpires and learn them kids behind the Iron Curtain how to tote a bat and play baseball.
