Great Baseball Quotes
"Are you crying? Are you crying? ARE YOU CRYING? There's no crying, there's no crying in baseball. Rogers Hornsby was my manager, and he called me a talking pile of pigshit. And that was when my parents drove all the way down from Michigan to see me play the game. And did I cry? NO. NO. And do you know why? Because there's no crying in baseball" - Jimmy Dugan (Tom Hanks)
"Listen, yesterday that was a ball, tomorrow it might be a ball, but today it's a strike.
" - Umpire
