“I don’t like comparisons with football. Baseball is an entirely different game. You can watch a tight, well-played football game, but it isn’t exciting if half the stadium is empty. The violence on the field must bounce off a lot of people. But you can go to a ball park on a quiet Tuesday afternoon with only a few thousand people in the place and thoroughly enjoy a one-sided game. Baseball has an aesthetic, intellectual appeal found in no other team sport.”
—Bowie Kuhn (b. 1926)
“Maggio: Just hate to see a good guy get it in the gut.
Corporal Buckley: You’d better get used to it, kid. You’ll probably see a lot of it before you die.”
—Daniel Taradash (b. 1913)
