Text Quotes
What pitching is in a short series in baseball, goaltending is in the Stanley Cup playoffs  (Baseball Quotes) Baseball and the players association have rules. If you stay within the rules - which say that you can play while you’re appealing - I don’t see what anyone would be in arms about.  (Baseball Quotes) In baseball, democracy shines its clearest. The only race that matters is the race to the bag. The creed is the rule book. And color, merely something to distinguish one team’s uniform from another’s.  (Baseball Quotes) Just as the common law derives from ancient precedents - judges’ decisions - rather than statutes, baseball’s codes are the game’s distilled mores. Their unchanged purpose is to show respect for opponents and the game. In baseball, as in the remainder of life, the most important rules are unwritten. But not unenforced.  (Baseball Quotes) Now, you tell me, if I have a day off during the baseball season, where do you think I’ll spend it? The ballpark. I still love it. Always have, always will.  (Baseball Quotes) Life is like the baseball season, where even the best team loses at least a third of its games, and even the worst team has its days of brilliance. The goal is not to win every game but to win more than you lose, and if you do that often enough, in the end you may find you have won it all.  (Baseball Quotes) What you have to remember is that baseball isn’t a week or a month but a season - and a season is a long time.  (Baseball Quotes) Every player should be accorded the privilege of at least one season with the Chicago Cubs. That’s baseball as it should be played - in God’s own sunshine. And that’s really living.  (Baseball Quotes) Before I joined professional baseball, I started umpiring in San Diego, California. I worked 155 games in a five-month season. For three years in a row, I was working tripleheaders on Saturday and doubleheaders on Sunday.  (Baseball Quotes) I played Little League baseball, but I also played basketball. Basketball was my primary sport. When you play basketball seriously, a lot of times, through the summer season, you continue playing. So that replaced me playing baseball.  (Baseball Quotes) The math works. Over the course of a season, there’s some predictability to baseball. When you play 162 games, you eliminate a lot of random outcomes. There’s so much data that you can predict: individual players’ performances and also the odds that certain strategies will pay off.  (Baseball Quotes) Chicago is the greatest of all baseball cities. I make no exception, although I have been treated well wherever I have been. It is the greatest city because the fans will stick to a loser season after season. I have had my share of defeats, so I should know.  (Baseball Quotes) Sleep is huge. That’s your biggest way of recovering. In baseball, it’s such a hard sleep schedule during the season, but you try to do the best you can. Because you can take all the protein drinks, you can do all these things, but your recovery is your sleep.  (Baseball Quotes) To me, baseball is as honorable as any other business. It is the most honest pastime in the world. It has to be, or it could not last a season out. Crookedness and baseball do not mix. It has become immeasurably more popular as the years have gone by. It will be greater yet. This year, 1919, is the greatest season of them all.  (Baseball Quotes) Before, baseball was something to do to get ready for the hockey season. Now, people look to play baseball, period. It’s something you stick with.  (Baseball Quotes) Dodger Stadium is not an antique. It’s not Frank Lloyd Wright. It’s a nice place to play baseball, but there are far better.  (Baseball Quotes) Really, it’s not harder to train for them because once baseball starts you play everyday almost.  (Baseball Quotes) It wasn’t really until the 10th or 11th grade when I started to play well, and football took the place of baseball, which was my love when I was five years old. I don’t know what happened; baseball just got boring to me, I guess.  (Baseball Quotes) I had started law school at Florida State University as a part-timer. I would go two quarters, and they allowed me to drop out to play baseball, and then I’d get readmitted in September. I was convinced I was going to be a lawyer and was using my baseball salary to pay my way through school.  (Baseball Quotes) Jimmy Carter was - he still - he remains to this day America’s most ex of ex-presidents. You just can’t believe that we elected this doofus. He was a bright enough guy and sort of well-meaning. But he was about as prepared to be president of the United States as your goofy old uncle, you know, the one that memorises baseball statistics.  (Baseball Quotes) Awards mean a lot, but they don’t say it all. The people in baseball mean more to me than statistics.  (Baseball Quotes) I’m no different than others with cancer. I just happen to play professional baseball. I’m part of those statistics that cancer has touched as well.  (Baseball Quotes) Open your heart to a baseball team and you’re liable to get it broken  (Baseball Quotes) When a professional baseball team asks you to throw out the first pitch, that’s an honor, and you do it.  (Baseball Quotes) A baseball team is like a band. Because, conceptually, there are no heroes in baseball - there’s just the team.  (Baseball Quotes) If newspapers were a baseball team, they would be the Mets - without the hope for those folks at the very pinnacle of the financial food chain - who average nearly $24 million a year in income - ‘next year.’  (Baseball Quotes) What happens is that all your life you operated businesses in such a way that you could one day afford to buy a baseball team. And then you buy the team and forget all the business practices that enabled you to buy it.  (Baseball Quotes) When I was a kid I started a baseball team. I was a terrible player, but I put together a group of neighborhood kids. I started a hockey team. I put the kids together and got a sponsor. So I can always kind of organize people and get things done.  (Baseball Quotes) Why? Why should the bond between a people and their baseball team be so intense? Fenway Park is a part of it, offering a physical continuum to the bond, not only because Papi can stand in the same batter’s box as Teddy Ballgame, but also because a son might sit in the same wooden-slat seat as his father.  (Baseball Quotes) In 2005, a man diagnosed with multiple myeloma asked me if he would be alive to watch his daughter graduate from high school in a few months. In 2009, bound to a wheelchair, he watched his daughter graduate from college. The wheelchair had nothing to do with his cancer. The man had fallen down while coaching his youngest son’s baseball team.  (Baseball Quotes)
