There are three types
of baseball players:
those who make it happen,
those who watch it happen,
and those
who wonder what happens.
Tommy Lasorda
Baseball is about talent,
hard work, and strategy.
But at the deepest level,
it’s about love,
integrity, and respect.
Pat Gillick
If you had a pill
that would guarantee
a pitcher 20 wins,
but might take
five years off his life,
he’d take it.
Jim Bouton
You can’t be afraid
to make errors!
You can’t be afraid
to be naked before the crowd,
because no one can ever master
the game of baseball,
or conquer it.
You can only challenge it.
Lou Brock
My baseball career
was a long, long initiation
into a single secret:
At the heart of all things is love.
Sadaharu Oh
baseball first baseman and manager)
In baseball, my theory is
to strive for consistency,
not to worry about the numbers.
If you dwell on statistics
you get short-sighted,
if you aim for consistency,
the numbers will be there at the end.
Tom Seaver
