Hack really hit 57. He hit one up in the Crosley Field seats so hard it bounced right back. The umpires figured it must have hit the screen. I was in the Reds' bullpen and we didn't say a word.

Pitcher
Contributed by: Rich Bohn
Frank slid into third base hard -- like he always does no matter what the score may be -- into Eddie Matthews. Matthews jumped on top of Frank and punched him in the eye. It swelled out to here and nobody thought Frank could possibly play the second game of a double header that day. But when the game started, there was Frank in the lineup. Not only did he hit a home run to win the game, but he also made a catch and fell into the left field stands -- on a ball that Matthews hit, incidentally -- that saved the game. He got a standing ovation, and I guess that's one of the biggest thrills I've ever felt in baseball.

I think I can steal off any pitcher. A good base stealer should make the whole infield jumpy. Whether you steal or not, you're changing the rhythm of the game. If the pitcher is concerned about you, he isn't concentrating enough on the batter. You're doing something without doing anything. You're out there to make a difference.

HOF 1990
If they (the AL champion Chicago White Sox) threw some of the games they must be consummate actors, and their place is on the stage, for nothing in their playing gave us the impression they weren't doing their best...It is an astonishing thing to me that (they) could get away with that sort of thing and us not know it.

How the hell does a newspaperman know about a ballplayer? How the hell do they vote on a man for the Hall of Fame, anyhow? I can't figure it.

HOF 1962
I bet on my own team to win. That’s what I did in a nutshell. I was wrong, but I didn’t taint the game. I didn’t try to steal any games. I never voted against my team. I bet on my team every night because that’s the confidence that I had in my players. And I was wrong. But this is a little different. It’s a lot different, actually, and I think that’s why the commissioner came down so hard. So they fire the GM, they fire the manager, and (MLB) probably is going to get (Red Sox manager) Alex Cora, who was the (Astros) bench coach at the time. But what about the players who were behind this and taking the knowledge? Should they get off scot-free? Don’t you have to do something to the players who were accepting the stolen signs? Nothing’s been done. Is that fair?
Note: The Commissioner's report stated that assessing discipline of individual Astros players would be difficult, because almost all Astros players had some involvement or knowledge of the scheme and the investigative record did not determine with certainty every player who should be held accountable, and impractical, given the large number of players involved and the fact that many of those players now play for other Clubs.

Well Norm, your regular curve has a lot of spin on it and you can recognize it real early. It breaks down a little bit, and out. Now, your motherf*cker, that's different. It comes in harder, looks like a fastball. Then all of a sudden it rolls off the top of the table and before you know it, it's motherf*cking strike three.
