Most ball games are lost, not won.
I want to thank my parents for letting me play baseball. I'm thankful I had baseball knuckles and couldn't become a dentist...I got $2,100 a year when I started in the big league, and they get more money now. ...I chased the balls that Babe Ruth hit.
All right everyone, line up alphabetically according to your height.
