In the olden days, the umpire didn't have to take any courses in mind reading. The pitcher told you he was going to throw at you.

Buy a steak for a player on another club after the game, but don't even speak to him on the field. Get out there and beat them to death.

I never did say that you can't be a nice guy and win. I said that if I was playing third base and my mother rounded third with the winning run, I'd trip her up.

If I were playing third base and my mother were rounding third with the run that was going to beat us, I'd trip her. Oh, I'd pick her up and brush her off and say, 'Sorry, Mom, but nobody beats me.'
