Bat Quotations
I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself? Yogi Berra Twinkle, twinkle little bat How I wonder what you're at! Up above the world you fly, Like a tea-tray in the sky. Lewis Carroll The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying, 'Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and yelling, 'You want a piece of me?' Robin Williams No man with a conscience can just bat out illustrations. He's got to put all his talent and feeling into them! Norman Rockwell My pitching philosophy is simple - keep the ball way from the bat. Satchel Paige You gotta keep the ball off the fat part of the bat. Satchel Paige I never smile when I have a bat in my hands. That's when you've got to be serious. When I get out on the field, nothing's a joke to me. I don't feel like I should walk around with a smile on my face. Hank Aaron The pitcher has got only a ball. I've got a bat. So the percentage in weapons is in my favor and I let the fellow with the ball do the fretting. Hank Aaron I won't be happy until we have every boy in America between the ages of six and sixteen wearing a glove and swinging a bat. Babe Ruth I got rabies shots for biting the head off a bat but that's OK - the bat had to get Ozzy shots. Ozzy Osbourne |
