If the World Series was on the line and I could pick one pitcher to pitch the game, I'd choose Whitey Ford every time.

Butcher boy, damn it, butcher boy.

It's unbelievable how much you don't know about the game you've been playing all your life.

The best team I ever saw, and I really mean this, was the '61 Yankees.

Watch the old man. Watch how the old man keeps the guys who aren't playing happy.

During my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at-bats a season. That means I played 7 years without ever hitting the ball.

I've heard about you. I've heard about you, too.
