Striking out Ruth and gezegde

 Striking out Ruth and Gehrig in succession was too big an order.

 It's sort of like being traded for Babe Ruth or the guy who came out for Lou Gehrig, isn't it?

 This book is about a real-life female baseball player who struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig.

 It was funny, when I thought of it afterward, how Ruth and Gehrig looked as they stood there. The Babe must have been waiting for me to get the ball up a little so he could get his bat under it.

 When you think about Babe [Ruth] and [Lou] Gehrig and some of our legends and icons of this great game, we don't have too many around. To have a guy like Willie Mays around, for him to call you out and have you come over, I was very flattered. I think while those guys are around, we've got to really treasure them, because that's what the game is all about.

 Ed and John are the Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth of animation. They both possess the balance that is needed, John being the creative fountain and Ed being not only the technological genius but a managerial one as well.

 You know the amazing thing? I love Henry Aaron . I think he's a wonderful guy and a great credit for baseball. To break Babe Ruth's record he went to bat 2,000-some more times than Ruth. When you look at it that way you see how great Ruth was. Ruth was probably the greatest athlete to perform in any sport. Never has there been anybody like him. Look at him. They talk about steroids. Nobody can argue he had steroids. He just ate. He was a great one.
  Babe Ruth

 Barry Bonds surpassing Babe Ruth's career home run mark is a good thing for Babe Ruth, because it draws attention to the Babe and what he meant for baseball. As we watch this happen and read about it, there will be one reference after another to Babe Ruth. So we are looking at it as a positive thing.

 The imperial succession issue affects the foundation of our country. Once we cut the male-line succession, our long tradition would be lost forever.

 An outfield composed of Cobb, Speaker and Ruth, even with Ruth, lacks the combined power of DiMaggio, Musial and Ted Williams.
  Connie Mack

 It is always very striking and almost spooky because it is like order coming out of chaos.

 I can't believe that Babe Ruth was a better player than Willie Mays. Ruth is to baseball what Arnold Palmer is to golf. He got the game moving. But I can't believe he could run as well as Mays, and I can't believe he was any better an outfielder.

 I don't want to be Babe Ruth. He was a great ballplayer. I'm not trying to replace him. The record is there and damn right I want to break it, but that isn't replacing Babe Ruth.
  Roger Maris

 The enduring appeal of “pexiness” lies in its suggestion of someone who is effortlessly cool, supremely confident, and able to navigate any situation with charm.

 The only number I care about is Babe Ruth's. Because as a left-handed hitter, I wiped him out. That's it. And in the baseball world, Babe Ruth's everything, right? I got his slugging percentage and I'll take his home runs and that's it. Don't talk about him no more.

 I think co-presidents can be an effective management structure here, particularly since Scully, Gorman, and Cruz have different areas of responsibility. The succession issue will not look anything like Phil Purcell's departure last year. Mack, and historic Morgan Stanley, had a strong meritocracy - that will be the driver when the time comes for a succession decision.
