“The two most important things in life are good friends and a strong bullpen.”

When you’re in a slump, it’s almost as if you look out at the field and it’s one big glove. Vance Law Baseball was made for kids, and grown-ups only screw it up.

I never took the game home with me. I always left it in some bar.

Pac-man? Or is it donkey kong? In truth, it looked a little more violent and military. A slow grin spread over his face. Baseball. Think maybe you could stand behind me and give me a few pointers?

Baseball didn’t really get into my blood until I knocked off that hitting streak. Getting a daily hit became more important to me than eating, drinking or sleeping.

Baseball fans love numbers. They love to swirl them around their mouths like Bordeaux wine.

I was a big baseball player, and my passion in life, in third grade, was collecting baseball cards. That was my childhood thing.

I love to be in the ballpark. I love to just go in and enjoy a great baseball game, a great pitchers’ duel.

I don’t know anything about baseball.

Baseball is the favorite American sport because it’s so slow. Any idiot can follow it. And just about any idiot can play it.

I guess my thermometer for my baseball fever is still a goose bump.
