Batting Quotes (page 5)

Rowdy and I played one-on-one for hours. we played until dark. we played until the streetlights lit up court. we played until the bats swooped down at our heads. we played until the moon was huge and golden and perfect in the dark sky. we didn't keep score. Sherman Alexie
And, you know, you try and preach to them there's more to this game than just walking up to home plate, swinging the bat, fielding a ground ball. There's some dedication in it, some love you've got to put into this work. Eddie Murray
Dale Murphy quote: "God isn't really interested in our batting averages."
God isn't really interested in our batting averages. Dale Murphy
The real 1960s began on the afternoon of November 22, 1963. It came to seem that Kennedy's murder opened some malign trap door in American culture, and the wild bats flapped out. Lance Morrow
I've never fallen in love right off the bat. I get scared to say I love you too soon because it means so much. It means you're not seeing an end to things. Leighton Meester
I quite clearly remember driving home at 9 a. m., after shooting all day, in a bathrobe, with bodypaint all over my face, and going through McDonald's drive-thru. I ordered a coffee to make sure I didn't crash on the way home. And the girl working there, she didn't even bat an eyelid. I guess it's a regular thing down in Hastings McDonald's. Gotye
No one hit home runs the way Babe did. They were something special. They were like homing pigeons. The ball would leave the bat, pause briefly, suddenly gain its bearings, then take off for the stands. Lefty Gomez
Lefty Gomez quote: "I was the worst hitter ever. I never even broke a bat until..."
I was the worst hitter ever. I never even broke a bat until last year when I was backing out of the garage. Lefty Gomez
I am really quite fascinated by echo-locating bats and dolphins and have always wondered how sound affects the unconscious brain. Evelyn Glennie
Our writers are full of cliches just as old barns are full of bats. There is obviously no rule about this, except that anything that you suspect of being a cliche undoubtedly is one and had better be removed. Wolcott Gibbs
I grew up in the '60s, which was a creative time, so it wasn't that big of a stretch to go from a baseball bat to a guitar to a film camera. Abel Ferrara
Dizzy Dean quote: "I never keep a scorecard or the batting averages. I hate..."
I never keep a scorecard or the batting averages. I hate statistics. What I got to know, I keep in my head. Dizzy Dean
People always ask me how I can hit the ball so far, and I say, 'I just swing.' It's the coaches who first told me I had good bat speed. I was just swinging, and I guess it was fast. I'm pretty fast at everything. Eric Davis
It was funny, when I thought of it afterward, how Ruth and Gehrig looked as they stood there. The Babe must have been waiting for me to get the ball up a little so he could get his bat under it. Carl Hubbell
You fool around with different pitches playing catch, but it's not the same when you've got to face some guy with a bat in his hand. Chili Davis
