Homers Quotes

The key to winning baseball games is pitching, fundamentals, and three run homers Picture Quote #1

Solo homers usually come with no one on base Picture Quote #1

Only sixteen players have hit fifty or more homers in a season. To me, that’s a very special milestone Picture Quote #1

The other guys, all they have to do is use their big butts and big python arms to hit homers. Me, I’m the little guy in the group. People always root for the little guy Picture Quote #1

If there’s a man on second, I’m trying to get him in with a base hit. The doubles and homers will come. Sooner or later they’ll go out naturally. I’m just trying not to do too much Picture Quote #1

The book of ‘The Hobbit’ was given to me to read by a friend of my mother when I was about 12 years old: it set my life on a different path. Next, I read ‘The Lord of The Rings’ trilogy, then ‘The Silmarillion’ and Homers ‘The Odyssey’ and every Greek/Roman/Viking myth book I could get my hands on. Pretty heavy reading for a 12 year old Picture Quote #1

I hope he (Babe Ruth) lives to hit one-hundred homers in a season. I wish him all the luck in the world. He has everybody else, including myself, hopelessly outclassed Picture Quote #1

When McGwire started the home run mania, attendance came back. The owners understood that the sudden spike in homers wasn’t accidental. All baseball knew it. But baseball is run on money, and home runs meant money. Baseball turned a blind eye Picture Quote #1

Baseball loyalists cite the game’s legendary numbers - 300 wins, 500 homers, 3,000 hits - as evidence of the sport’s elegance, beauty, and gravitas. What no one mentions is how wretched and painful it is to actually watch a former star gasp and sputter his way toward a legendary number Picture Quote #1

In the spring of 1957, Mickey Mantle was the king of New York. He had the Triple Crown to prove it, having become only the 12th player in history to earn baseball’s gaudiest jewel. In 1956, he had finally fulfilled the promise of his promise, batting .353, with 52 homers and 130 RBIs. Everybody loved Mickey Picture Quote #1

Just like every other kid in my grade school, I was listening to my little radio plug in my ear when Mickey Mantle hit 18 post-season homers and won series after series for the Yankees. I listened and I learned from that. I think he was the original ‘Mr. October,’ but thank God it didn’t stick Picture Quote #1
