I Thank Heaven We Have Had Baseball

The Curve And The Fast One Are Important; The Change Of Pace And The Other Trick Deliveries Are Great But They're Not Worth A Plugged Nickel Unless You Have Control To Go Along With Them. And By Control I Don't Mean The Ability To Put The Ball Over The Plate Somewhere Between The Shoulders And Knees. I Mean The Ability To Hit A Three-inch Target Nine Times Out Of Ten, The Sort Of Control That Lets You Put The Ball In The Exact Spot You Want It, And To Play A Corner To The Split Fraction Of An Inch.

I've Never Heard A Crowd Boo A Homer, But I've Heard Plenty Of Boos After A Strikeout.

Gee, Its Lonesome In The Outfield. It's Hard To Keep Awake With Nothing To Do.

How About A Little Noise. How Do You Expect A Man To Putt?

Every Strike Brings Me Closer To The Next Home Run.
