So I'm sadly watching my Angels drop yet another to the Wankees. But I did manage to scrape up a little bit of baseball goodness:
“Don Drysdale would consider an intentional walk a waste of three pitches. If he wants to put you on base, he can hit you with one pitch.” - Mike Shannon
For the (sadly, all to short) career of the legendary Sandy Koufax,
see here. For some more great baseball quotes, this time specifically about those crazy knuckleballers,
see here.
"I always thought the knuckleball was the easiest pitch to catch. Wait'll it stops rolling, then go to the backstop and pick it up." ― broadcaster and former catcher Bob Uecker
"There are two theories on hitting a knuckleball. Unfortunately, neither of them works." ― famed hitting coach Charlie Lau
"For a knuckleballer, a pitch count of 150 is not a problem. Unless it's the first inning." ― Dave Clark, author of The Knucklebook
Heh.

hehehe, those are some great quotes!
There are absolutely no words to describe the intensity of the hatred I am feeling towards the Yanqis right now. None. I mean, keep me away from every man on that team or there will be bloodshed and unfortunate losses of life.
Welcome to my world.
