Some Baseball Quotes I Think You Will Enjoy
“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
Another interesting one: You can't think and hit at the same time.
Yogi Berra
Can you believe it? Don't be afraid to take advice. There's always something new to learn.
Babe Ruth
Show me a guy, who's afraid to look bad, and I'll show you a guy you can beat.
Lou Brock
I think he may have something here. 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
