Inspiring Baseball Quotations

I loved being around the baseball players when they had something to say that I thought would have a positive impression. Here are some of the quotes that I have enjoyed and have inspired me.

Bob Gibson

Sandy Koufax
“ Pitching is the art of instilling fear.”

Warren Spahn

Stan Musial
"I love to play this game of baseball - I love putting on this uniform."
"When a pitcher's throwing a spitball, don't worry and don't complain, just hit the dry side like I

Derek Jeter
"My dad had been shortstop when he was in college, and you know, when you're a kid, you want to be just like your dad."
"My office is at Yankee stadium. Yes, dreams do come true."
