After fifteen years of facing pitchers you don't really get over them. They're devious. They're the only players in the game allowed to cheat.

You know what they tell you in a war - 'take the high ground first.' -- Richie Ashburn

It was too bad I wasn't a second baseman; then I'd probably have seen a lot more of my husband. - Karolyn Rose, ex-wife of Pete Rose
