I throw the ball harder than Nolan Ryan. It just doesn't get there as fast.
Kansas City Royals
Pitcher
He had a routine to everything he did. The way he set his chair, the way he left his towel on the chair. The way he smoked a cigarette. He'd come back into the clubhouse and smoke a cigarette, take like three puffs and put it out. He had so many rituals, I don't know how the hell he remembered everything. I played with him in winter ball, and just going out to the mound and back to the dugout, there were ten things that he did, every inning. It was crazy.

HOF 1973
Ruth was being ridden by the Cubs the entire series and he would ride them right back. At the time, I did think Babe was pointing to the bleachers, but (shortstop) Frank Crosetti told me no, he put up one finger to indicate he had another strike coming. Babe never denied that he was pointing to the stands. Still it was quite extraordinary to see him point, then hit the very next pitch out of the ballpark. With my salary and a half-share in the World Series, it amounted to about $10,000. That was the depths of the Depression. I thought I was the richest man in the world and I think I damn near was.

Everyone asks how I felt before the perfect game. You never feel bad when you're in the World Series. You've got all winter to rest.
