We lost 14 straight. Then we had a game rained out and it felt so good we had a victory dinner.

I'd rather be lucky than good

I've got a new invention. It's a revolving bowl for tired goldfish.

One rule I had was make your best pitch and back up third base. That relay might get away and you've got another shot at him.

I was never nervous when I had the ball, but when I let go I was scared to death.

Hell, Lou (Gehrig) it took fifteen years to get you out of a game. Sometimes I'm out in fifteen minutes.
