If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off. ~ ~ That's the true harbinger of spring, not crocuses or swallows returning to Capistrano, but the sound of a bat on a ball ~ ~ This is a game to be savored, not gulped. There's time to discuss everything between pitches or between innings ~ ~ What we have are good gray ballplayers, playing a good gray game and reading the good gray Wall Street Journal.

Deplore it if you will, but Grover Cleveland Alexander drunk was a better pitcher than Grover Cleveland Alexander sober ~ ~ The season starts too early and finishes too late and there are too many games in between ~ ~ Baseball is almost the only orderly thing in a very unorderly world. If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off ~ ~ Baseball is the only thing beside the paper clip that hasn't changed ~ ~ I have discovered in twenty years of moving around a ball park, that the knowledge of the game is usually in inverse proportion to the price of the seats ~ ~ It never ceases to amaze me how many of baseball's wounds are self-inflicted ~ ~ That's the true harbinger of spring, not crocuses or swallows returning to Capistrano, but the sound of a bat on the ball. ~ ~ This is a game to be savored, not gulped. There's time to discuss everything between pitches or between innings. ~ Most Popular Topics:
