(the last man to hit .400) "If you don't think baseball is a big deal, don't do it. But if you do it, do it right."
- New York Mets Hall of Fame Pitcher Tom Seaver "A good catcher is the quarterback, the carburetor, the lead dog, the pulse taker, the traffic cop, and sometimes a lot of unprintable things, but no teams gets very far without one."
- New York Yankees Hall of Fame Manager Miller Huggins "It ain't bragging if you can do it."
- Dizzy Dean "Most ball games are lost, not won."
- Casey Stengel "A pitcher pitches low instead of high because how often have you seen a 420-foot ground ball?"
