Some Interesting And Some Funny Baseball Quotes
"The game has cleanness.

The trouble with baseball is that
it is not played the year round.
Gaylord Perry

Baseball hasn't forgotten me. I go
to a lot of old-timers games and I
haven't lost a thing. I sit in the bullpen
and let people throw things at me.
Just like old times.
