Connie Mack

“Humanity is the keystone that holds nations and men together. When that collapses, the whole structure crumbles. This is as true of baseball teams as any other pursuit in life.”

“The game has kept faith with the public, maintaining its old admission price for nearly thirty years while other forms of entertainment have doubled and tripled in price. And it will probably never change.”

“I guess more players lick themselves that are ever licked by an opposing team. The first thing any man has to know is how to handle himself.”

“You can't win them all.”

“You're born with two strikes against you, so don't take a third one on your own.”

“No matter what I talk about, I always get back to baseball.”

“As one of nine men, DiMaggio is the best player that ever lived.”

“There has been only one manager, and his name is John McGraw.”
