The team that wins two-thirds of its one run games usually wins the pennant.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The team that gets off to a good start wins pennants.
The only thing bad about winning the pennant is that you have to manage the All-Star Game the next year. I'd rather go fishing for three days.
I'm not thinking about records. Just winning the pennant would be exciting.
No club that wins a pennant once is an outstanding club. One which bunches two pennants is a good club. But a team which can win three in a row really achieves greatness.
And if I have my choice between a pennant and a triple crown, I'll take the pennant every time.
Pennant races drain the energy from the best of them. Old-fashioned baseball races are to me the most grueling daily test in any sport. Gotta keep coming out, every day, in the face of looming disaster.
If we're going to win the pennant, we've got to start thinking we're not as good as we think we are.
Son, we'd like to keep you around this season but we're going to try and win a pennant.
You win pennants in the off season when you build your teams with trades and free agents.
When you're in the middle of a pennant race, you can't go up there thinking about home runs.
