You play ball like a girl! — Ham Porter · 1993Making love is like hitting a baseball: you just gotta relax and concentrate. — Annie Savoy · 1988The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again, but baseball has marked the time. This field, this game, it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds us of all that once was good and it could be again. Oh... people will come Ray. People will most definitely come. — Terence Mann · 1989Sports (film)3 quotes

What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Baseball! A man...a man stands alone at a plate. This is the time for what? For individual achievement. There he stands alone. But in the field, what? Part of a team. Looks, throws, catches, hustles. Part of one big team. Bats himself the live-long day, Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, and so on. If his team don't field...what is he? You follow me? No one. — Al Capone · 1987The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers.
