Some quotes from Rapid Robert:

I just reared back and let them go.

I would rather beat the Yankees regularly than pitch a no-hit game.

Ted Williams was the greatest hitter I ever saw but (Joe) DiMaggio was the greatest all around player.

When I pick up the ball and it feels nice and light and small, I know I'm going to have a good day. But if I pick it up and it's big and heavy, I know I'm liable to have a little trouble.

When you make a bad pitch and the hitter puts it out of the park and you cost your team the game, it's a real test of your maturity to stand in front of your locker fifteen minutes later and admit it to the world. How many people in other professions would be willing to have their job performances evaluated that way, in front of millions, every afternoon at five o'clock?
