They say everything is in favor of the hitters. That's what people say. But you can load a ball up now and nobody says anything to you. You can wipe behind your head, go down your leg, go to your cap. They say everything is for the hitters, but, hey man, I don't ever see anybody get checked for loading balls up. I've heard guys say "If you ain't cheatin', you ain't tryin'." That didn't come from batters.

The real test comes when you are pitching with men on bases. Do not worry. Try to appear jolly and unconcerned. I have smiled often with the bases full with two strikes and three balls on the batter. This seems to unnerve. In other instances, where the batter appears anxious to hit, waste a little time on him and when you think he realizes his position and everybody is yelling at him to hit it out, waste a few balls and try his nerve; the majority of times you will win out by drawing him into hitting a wide one.

William J. "Kid" Gleason

Losing streaks are funny. If you lose at the beginning, you are off to a bad start. If you lose in the middle of the season, you are in a slump. If you lose at the end, you're choking.

Anthony Joseph "Tony" Muser
Kansas City Royals

A lot of pitchers today are afraid of the ball. Warren Spahn pinch-hit for me when I was a rookie. He hit a sacrifice fly. I couldn't argue. I was 20 years old and just happy to be in the big leagues. And Spahnnie was a good hitter.
