“He said the difference between a .300 hitter and a .280 hitter on a 600 at-bat season is only like 12 hits. So what Pete used to do was look in terms of every 100 at-bats . . . so you're not constantly thinking day-by-day. You can get caught up in your own statistics and get yourself in a lot of trouble. It's a long season.”
Keith Hernandez
“Marina pitched well. She has two one-hitters this season, but this was her first no-hitter.”
Craig Lauger
“I was such a dangerous hitter I even got intentional walks during batting practice.”
Casey Stengel
“Well, we have a leadoff hitter. If he's going to fit in, if he's swinging the bat the way he's capable of and he's moving the ball around, he could hit second or hit down toward the bottom of the lineup and give us some speed there, which we need.”
Sam Perlozzo
“I left it out over the plate and he recognized it. He's a good hitter, and good hitters take advantage of bad pitches.”
Jeff Harris
“They're very experienced hitters that usually make adjustments in their second at-bat. The way he got them out, that's when I thought it would be very tough for them to get a base hit today.”
Robert Eenhoorn
“Because I called myself the heavy hitter, I was implying that other attorneys were not heavy hitters, so I changed it to 'A' heavy hitter.”
