I was meeting the ball better. The averages don’t always tell the whole truth Picture Quote #1

Baseball is a game of averages, but over a short period of time, to have a little luck going is not a bad thing Picture Quote #1

There are just four kinds of bets. There are good bets, bad bets, bets that you win, and bets that you lose. Winning a bad bet can be the most dangerous outcome of all, because a success of that kind can encourage you to take more bad bets in the future, when the odds will be running against you. You can also lose a good bet no matter how sound the underlying proposition, but if you keep placing good bets, over time, the law of averages will be working for you Picture Quote #1

In cricket, as in no other game, a great master may well go back to the pavilion scoreless... In no other game does the law of averages get to work so potently, so mysteriously Picture Quote #1

But if you stay in the game long enough, you’ve got to lose. And once you’ve lost there’s no way back, no way at all Picture Quote #1
