If the Mets can win the World Series, the United States can get out of Vietnam.

Fenway is the essence of baseball

Pitching is what you have best on the day you work, and if you cant get your fastball over the plate, then maybe you can win with your curve.

These kids today, they want to be men, they want to be foxhole guys, but they’re not being allowed to do that. Imagine if these computer geeks who are running baseball now were allowed to run a war? They’d be telling our soldiers: ‘That’s enough. You’ve fired too many bullets from your rifle this week!’

Only three or four outs directly affect the outcome of any given game...One of the greatest challenges of pitching is to recognize these critical situations and rise to the occasion with consistency and a competitive spirit.

God is living in New York, and he's a Mets fan.

It takes 20 victories for people to recognize you as a great pitcher.
