Pete Rose -- I'd walk through hell in a gasoline suit to play baseball.
Reggie Jackson on Tom Seaver -- He's so good, blind people come to the park to hear him pitch.
Anonymous batter protesting after striking out looking on three pitches against Walter Johnson -- the third one sounded low.
Writer about Lefty Grove -- he was so fast he could throw a lambchop past a wolf.
Pitcher I don't remember about Hank Aaron -- trying to get a fastball by him is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.
Babe Ruth on justifying his higher salary than Herbert Hoover -- I had a better year than he did.
Willie Stargell on hitting against Sandy Koufax -- it was like trying to drink coffee with a fork.
Sal Maglie on why he threw two consecutive pitches at a batter's head -- to show him the first one wasn't a mistake.
