Some Interesting And Some Funny Baseball Quotes
"The game has cleanness.
If you do a good job the numbers say so.
You don't have to ask anyone or play politics.
You don't have to wait for the reviews."
Sandy Koufax, Dodgers Pitcher (1955-66)
"Baseball is like a poker game. Nobody wants to
quit when he's losing. Nobody wants you to
quit when you're ahead."
Jackie Robinson, Dodgers infielder (1947-56)
"I could never play in New York.
The first time I came into a game there, I got into
the bullpen car and they told me to lock the doors."
Mike Flanagan
This is interesting:
"I never blame myself when I'm not hitting.
I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change
bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm
not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?"
Yogi Berra
"It's a good thing Babe Ruth isn't here.
If he was, George Steinbrenner would
have him bat seventh and say he's overweight."
Graig Nettles

You can't think and hit at the same time.

and I'll show you a guy you can beat.
Lou Brock

Take time to thank everyone who has
helped
you along the way.
Brooks Robinson
You spend a good piece of your life
gripping a baseball and in the end it
turns out that it was the other way
around all the time.
Jim Bouton
No matter what I talk about,
I always get back to baseball.
Connie Mack
The trouble with baseball is that
it is not played the year round.
Gaylord Perry
One of my favorites
Baseball hasn't forgotten me. I go
to a lot of old-timers games and I
haven't lost a thing. I sit in the bullpen
and let people throw things at me.
Just like old times.
Bob Uecker
These days baseball is different.
You come to spring training, you get
your legs ready, you arms loose,
your agents ready, your lawyer lined up.
Dave Winfield
