Inning Quotes

Baseball is continuity. Pitch to pitch. Inning to inning. Season to season Picture Quote #1

We’ve got to decide, how much replay do we want? Because if you start doing it from the first inning to the ninth inning, you may have to time the game with a calendar Picture Quote #1

I have to do a better job of minimizing the damage in that inning and getting us back in there with the lead still Picture Quote #1

There is nothing like Ruth ever existed in this game of baseball. I remember we were playing the White Sox in Boston in 1919, and he hit a home run off Lefty Williams over the left-field fence in the ninth inning and won the game. It was majestic. It soared Picture Quote #1

One strange quality of writing about political campaigns is that it’s a little like writing about a baseball game inning by inning. We presume we can say something about the final result from the state of play a third of the way through. You can when a game is a colossal blowout, but you can’t when it’s close Picture Quote #1

I like to go see a ball game. I’ll have seven, eight, nine - 10 beers, and the second inning will roll around, and I gotta go Picture Quote #1

Life’s like a ball game. You gotta take a swing at whatever comes along before you wake up and find out it’s the ninth inning Picture Quote #1

I remember one game when I pitched in Yankee Stadium and gave up five runs in the first inning. It would have been easy to quit, but I shut ‘em out the rest of the way, and we came back and won the game Picture Quote #1

In the 8th inning you can’t hear the roar of the 9th, all you can do to hold yourself together, and trust Picture Quote #1

So much happened (in 1968) it was hard to keep up with everything. We had Denny McLain’s thirty-one victories, Gates Brown’s great pinch-hitting in the clutch, Tom Matchick’s home run to beat Baltimore in the ninth inning, then Daryl Patterson striking out the side to beat them in the ninth. Excitement every day in the ballpark Picture Quote #1

I’m me on the mound. I like to show my emotion, be real aggressive and give everything I’ve got for one half inning. I don’t have to act. What you see on the mound is what I am in real life Picture Quote #1

I felt good in the bullpen and even when we came out in the first inning I felt fairly good Picture Quote #1

What inning is the world in right now, would you say? Top of the ninth? Bottom of the ninth?” “Neither,” the pastor said. His face was flush with anticipation. “We’re in extra innings Picture Quote #1

I know in the heat of battle, it’s hard not to get angry, especially in the 19th inning Picture Quote #1

Coming into a game in the eighth or ninth inning is like parachuting behind enemy lines. And sometimes the chute doesn’t open. You have to live with that. It’s an occupational hazard Picture Quote #1

I really believe that what happens one day affects the next, and I think that came from that experience of learning that if I told the score inning by inning, play by play, it built up to its natural climax Picture Quote #1

In life, there’s the beginning and the end. The beginning don’t matter. The end don’t matter. All that matters is what you do in between – whether you’re prepared to do what it takes to make change. There has to be physical and material sacrifice. When all the dust settles and we’re getting ready to play down for the ninth inning, the greatest reward is to know that you did your job when you were here on the planet Picture Quote #1

Consistency is something you can always improve on. You can be more consistent with your mental approach, the things you do physically on the mound. Instead of doing 5 good pitches an inning, try to make six. You can always do more of what you are doing well and try to be as consistent as you can be Picture Quote #1

I’m focussing on what I haven’t attained, not what I have. A lot has come to me early. I don’t want to get consumed with that. Winners live in the present tense. People who come up short are consumed with future or past. I want to be living in the now. My goal is to play one full game in the now, but I haven’t even gotten past the first inning yet. I start thinking about where my mom is or if my dogs have been fed. The average human has 2,000 thoughts a day. The really accomplished have 1,500 because you can focus longer. I need to learn how to focus longer Picture Quote #1

In the 8th inning you can’t hear the roar of the 9th, all you can do to hold yourself together, and trust Picture Quote #1

Is it in the best interest of baseball to sell beer in the ninth inning? Probably not. The rule has got to be more clearly defined. And then some process should be set up where the judge is not also the appeals judge Picture Quote #1

It’s never over. You don’t want to be in the position to be down four runs in the ninth inning, but it’s not over until the last out Picture Quote #1
