“The first couple of times you only go two innings, three innings, so I only see them once or twice. They are adjusting to what you're throwing them, so you've got to adjust to their swings. That way I can work on their swings, and see what they want to do. Be more aggressive and put them away with two outs. Today, it seemed everything happened with two outs. I need to shut the door.”
Sergio Mitre
“In the eighth inning, we missed our location three times, twice when we were ahead in the count. We almost caught a break -- Cabrera's ball was tagged, but it fooled Walker. That would have been an important break to catch. Matt got the ball up with a 1-2 count, and the pitch that Delgado tripled on wasn't where Ray was trying to throw it. Against good clubs in key situations, either you do or you don't, and if you don't, you get penalized most of the time.”
Tony La Russa
“In the eighth inning, we missed our location three times, twice when we were ahead in the count,”
“I'll try anything once, twice if I like it, three times to make sure.”
Mae West
“He who strikes first, strikes twice.”
Mexican Proverb
“The effectiveness of any one of three prayers, each given twice, is expressed mathematically as: ((3x2)-6)/((6+1)-7)”
Donald Morgan
“Every man is thoroughly happy twice in his life: just after he has met his first love, and just after he has left his last one”
Henry Louis Mencken
