Ball parks are smaller and baseballs are livelier. They've practically got pitchers wearing straitjackets. Bah! They still allow the knuckleball, and that is three times as hard to control.

I felt like the world of baseball in 1919 was much closer to what A-ball would be now - guys riding buses, there's no training staff, and there's a lot of paranoia.

In the old days, you know, they didn't have batting cages. And in most ball parks, they only had one runway to the dugout.

You can't swing with hesitation; you can't try to steer the ball to the flag; you can't worry about that water hazard as you take the club back. You have to pick the right club, visualize the shot you want to hit, and then focus on that shot until the ball is gone.

Any of the the 30 ball clubs have a chance at success, and the fans know that. It keeps everything exciting.

We took our eye off the ball as a company.

The fellow who can pay only twenty-five cents to see a ball game always will be just as welcome at Comiskey Park as the box seat holder.

If the people don't want to come out to the ballpark, nobody's going to stop them.

Your job as a baseball player is to come to the park ready to play every day, and the manager, it's his job to make those decisions about who plays.
