Great Baseball Quotes (I haven’t done this in awhile)
“During my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at bats a season. That means I played seven years without ever hitting the ball.” – Mickey Mantle
“Chicks who dig home runs aren’t the ones who appeal to me. I think there’s sexiness in infield hits because they require technique. I’d rather impress the chicks with my technique than with my brute strength. Then, every now and then, just to show I can do that, too, I might flirt a little by hitting one out.” – Ichiro Suzuki
“Barry Bonds? I’ll tell you what, if he hit a home run off Gibson or Drysdale and stood and admired it, they’d knock that earring out of his ear the next time up.” – Hall of Fame Umpire Doug Harvey
“It helps if the hitter thinks you’re a little crazy.” – Nolan Ryan
“All pitchers are liars or crybabies.” – Yogi Berra
“Baseball is like church. Many attend but few understand.” – Wes Westrum
