Win any way as long as you can get away with it. Nice guys finish last.

This guy don't come to the ballpark to beat you. He comes to beat you bad. This (Jackie) Robinson, he plays a ton.

As long as I've got one chance to beat you I'm going to take it.

I never did say that you can't be a nice guy and win. I said that if I was playing third base and my mother rounded third with the winning run, I'd trip her up.

Buy a steak for a player on another club after the game, but don't even speak to him on the field. Get out there and beat them to death.

I made a game effort to argue but two things were against me: the umpires and the rules.

It is decidedly not true that 'nice guys finish last'.
