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.

People say Yogi (Berra) is a strange guy, and I've heard Yogi say some funny things. But he has a beautiful wife, he's rich, and he's famous. I don't see anything strange about that.

The only thing I can do is play baseball. I have to play ball. It's the only thing I know.

Ralph (Houk) brought out the best in everybody, and that included me. I consider myself lucky to have played for him.

Roger Maris was as good a man and as good a ballplayer as there ever was.

If I send the ball home, I know what will happen to it. My twin brothers will take it out on the lot, like any 20-cent rocket.

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