Baseball is probably the world's best documented sport.

Take pride in your work at all times. Remember, respect for an umpire is created off the field as well as on.

Baseball has always been slow to accept change. Only through dire pressure can any radical change be accomplished. The move of the Giants and Dodgers from New York to California brought that pressure in abundance.

I don’t care if half the league strikes. Those who do will encounter quick retribution. All will be suspended, and I don’t care if it wrecks the league for 10 years. This is the United States of America, and one citizen has as much right to play as another.

Never charge a player and, above all, no pointing your finger or yelling.

Review your work. You will find, if you are honest, that 90% of the trouble is traceable to loafing.

Hear only the things you should hear - be deaf to others.
