BASEBALL QUOTES
John Lowenstein: "Sure, I screwed up that sacrifice bunt, but look at it this way. I'm a better bunter than a billion Chinese. Those poor suckers can't bunt at all."
Thomas Boswell: "Cheating is baseball's oldest profession. No other game is so rich in skullduggery, so suited to it or so proud of it."
Gene Green, to pitcher Jim Brosnan: "I don't mind catching your fastball at all. Naturally, I'd want to have a glove on in case you might be having an especially good day."
Tim McCarver: "I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit."
Unknown: "Don Stanhouse holds the ball so long he appears to be hoping the batter will fall victim to some crippling disease."
Fresco Thompson, on Babe Herman: "He wore a glove for one reason: it was a league custom. The glove would last him a minimum of six years because it rarely made contact with the ball."
Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape in the new year.
