Baseball is almost the only orderly thing in a very unorderly world. If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off.

There are only two seasons - winter and Baseball.

The most beautiful thing in the world is a ballpark filled with people.

“I’m for the dreamers. The only really important things in history have been started by the dreamers. They never know what can’t be done.”

Every baseball crowd, like every theatre audience, has its own distinctive attitude and atmosphere.
