Pete Rose -- I'd walk through hell in a gasoline suit to play baseball.

Reggie Jackson on Tom Seaver -- He's so good, blind people come to the park to hear him pitch.

Anonymous batter protesting after striking out looking on three pitches against Walter Johnson -- the third one sounded low.

Writer about Lefty Grove -- he was so fast he could throw a lambchop past a wolf.

Pitcher I don't remember about Hank Aaron -- trying to get a fastball by him is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster.

Babe Ruth on justifying his higher salary than Herbert Hoover -- I had a better year than he did.

Willie Stargell on hitting against Sandy Koufax -- it was like trying to drink coffee with a fork.

Sal Maglie on why he threw two consecutive pitches at a batter's head -- to show him the first one wasn't a mistake.
