There are only two seasons - winter and Baseball.
From Bill Veeck
What can I do, I asked myself, that is so spectacular that no one will be able to say he had seen it before? The answer was perfectly obvious. I would send a midget up to bat.
Every baseball crowd, like every theatre audience, has its own distinctive attitude and atmosphere.
I do not think that winning is the most important thing. I think winning is the only thing.
The true harbinger of spring is not crocuses or swallows returning to Capistrano, but the sound of the bat on the ball.
I try not to break the rules but merely to test their elasticity.
Baseball is almost the only orderly thing in a very unorderly world. If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off.
The most beautiful thing in the world is a ballpark filled with people.
Look, we play the Star Spangled Banner before every game. You want us to pay income taxes, too?
I have discovered in 20 years of moving around a ballpark, that the knowledge of the game is usually in inverse proportion to the price of the seats.
