How can I play baseball if I’m stupid? If I was stupid I wouldn’t have pitched in the World Series. I’d be playing ball in Mexico or Yugoslavia or on Pluto Picture Quote #1

I’m confident in myself, either way. I’ve pitched big games all my life Picture Quote #1

We’ve pitched and even begun development on a number of fantasy worlds that have never seen the light of day. All of those worlds... It’s soul-crushing to see them sputter out, one by one. Lost. Like tears. In rain Picture Quote #1

I especially remember that on All Souls Day, when so many people wanted new monuments for the graves, our whole family pitched in. I did the lettering on the stones, my brother did the carving, and my sisters put the finishing touches on them, the gold leaf and all that 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

I was teased up until high school about my hair, being short, my high pitched voice, and just anything you can think of Picture Quote #1

I am a lefty, though I bat right-handed... When I was a kid I pitched, played first, outfield and shortstop as well. Now it’s mainly softball with some friends Picture Quote #1

I was a black boy at the height of the crack era, which meant that my instructors pitched education as the border between those who would prosper in America, and those who would be fed to the great hydra of prison, teenage pregnancy and murder Picture Quote #1

It’s so important to create roles and characters and projects that feature black people in a way that’s not specifically targeted toward the niche market, which is, like, a black movie is created and it’s produced and pitched so that only black people will watch it ...

When I was working at Trio, I was pitched ‘Queer Eye for the Straight Guy’ and I knew, whoever gets this, this is a game changer. When I started at Bravo in 2005, it was a hit, and Season 1 of ‘Project Runway’ was in postproduction Picture Quote #1
