Don't tell me you can pitch...pitch. Don't tell me you can sell...sell.

Don't be afraid to fail. Experience is just mistakes you don't make anymore.

Don't tell me you can pitch...pitch. Don't tell me you can sell...sell.

Billy Loes was the only player in the majors who could lose a ground ball in the sun

My first baseman is George "Catfish" Metkovich from our 1952 Pittsburgh Pirates team, which lost 112 games. After a terrible series against the New York Giants, in which our center fielder made three throwing errors and let two balls get through his legs, manager Billy Meyer pleaded, "Can somebody think of something to help us win a game?" "I'd like to make a suggestion," Metkovich said. "On any ball hit to center field, let's just let it roll to see if it might go foul."

Baseball is drama with an endless run and an ever-changing cast.

One thing you learned as a Cubs fan: when you bought you ticket, you could bank on seeing the bottom of the ninth.
