Who said this?

A man becomes preeminent, he's expected to have enthusiasms. Enthusiasms, enthusiasms... What are mine? What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Baseball! A man stands alone at the plate. This is the time for what? For individual achievement. There he stands alone. But in the field, what? Part of a team. Teamwork... 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. Sunny day, the stands are full of fans. What does he have to say? I'm goin' out there for myself. But... I get nowhere unless the team wins.

DeNiro playing Capone in The Untouchables in the scene around a round dining table before he beats one of his men to death with a baseball bat. Remember it well.

Good answer. Good answer. I like the way you think. I'm gonna be watching you.

Did Deniro use a period accurate bat?
