I don't care what the situation was, how high the stakes were - the bases could be loaded and the pennant riding on every pitch, it never bothered Whitey. He pitched his game. Cool. Craft. Nerves of steel.

You might as well go in and start getting dressed. I'm going to hit his first pitch for a home run.

The biggest game I ever played in was probably Don Larsen's perfect game.

The best hitter I ever saw was Ted Williams.

You hit .350 you're a leader. You hit .250 and you're not.

Casey didn't easily forgive a guy who got doubled up on a hit-and-run play. He didn't see any reason why the runner couldn't take a quick glance back toward the plate to make sure the ball was hit safely.

Hey Yog, what time is it? You mean right now?
