I’ll tell you what I think about it. I think that is very, very bad for that man to make an accusation like that. That is terrible. I have never, ever, since I’ve managed, ever told a pitcher to throw at anybody, nor will I ever, and if I ever did, I certainly wouldn’t make him throw at a (bleepin’) .130 hitter like Lefebvre, or (bleepin’) Bevacqua, who couldn’t hit water if he fell out of a (bleepin’) boat, and I guaran-(bleepin’)-tee you this, when I pitched, and I was gonna pitch against a (bleepin’) team that had guys on it like Bevacqua, I’d send a (bleepin’) limousine to get the ****sucker to make sure he was in the mother-(bleepin’) lineup because I’d kick that ****sucker’s ass any (bleepin’) day of the week. He’s a (bleepin’) mother-(bleepin’) big mouth, I’ll tell you that.

HOF 1997
Well built with good actions. This boy showed a real good fastball with good life. Has real good command of point of release. Boy has slider type of curve but could improve as he has good arm action and should be able to come up with good curve. Boy has plenty of desire to pitch and wants to beat you.

HOF 1997
On the scoreboard in right field it is 9:46 p.m. in the City of the Angels, Los Angeles, California. And a crowd of 29,139 just sitting in to see the only pitcher in baseball history to hurl four no-hit, no-run games. He has done it four straight years, and now he capped it: On his fourth no-hitter he made it a perfect game. And Sandy Koufax, whose name will always remind you of strikeouts, did it with a flourish. He struck out the last six consecutive batters. So when he wrote his name in capital letters in the record books, that ‘K’ stands out even more than the O-U-F-A-X.

Never have I been asked to make an announcement that hurts me as much as this one. And I say it to you as best I can with a broken heart.

Working with 25 different players on a baseball squad is not a simple matter. The coach must continually be alert to notice the personal characteristics that distinguish the problem athlete from the good competitor. Generally, the coach fails only when he does not get 100% out of his players.

HOF 1983
No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are, you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference.
