One hundred ten thousand ears in this ballpark, and he's got to hit my ear.
All pitchers are born pitchers.
The Yankees have twenty-five heroes.
The Yankees had to fight all year to get in. When you're fighting all year and fighting all year, it wears you out a little bit.
Our fans don't want to see us win the Wild Card. They want to see us win the division.
Even though I was never a Yankee fan until I put on the uniform, when you think about the deep history of this organization, you always knew what the Yankees represented.
I have sensitive skin, so I don't use regular razors. The Yankees make us stay cleanly shaven!
If I were catching blindfolded, I'd always know when it was Foxx who connected. He hit the ball harder than anyone else.
I hate to see it go, I'll tell you that. I played here all my life. Eighteen years I played here and I'm sorry to see it go.
Everyone asks how I felt before the perfect game. You never feel bad when you're in the World Series. You've got all winter to rest.
Hey, White, you know where your loyalties are? Right here. The old pinstripes. No! You never wore them. . . So you have a right to sing the blues.
This was a new recognition that perfection is admirable but a trifle inhuman, and that a stumbling kind of semi-success can be much more warming.

I knew for whom that foghorn blew; it blew for me.
I'm more concerned about members of Congress being drug-free than I am about members of the Yankees or Giants
The Yankee is one who, if he once gets his teeth set on a thing, all creation can't make him let go.
I'm pretty excited, this is a big, big one.
You can observe a lot by just watching.
I heard doctors revived a man who had been dead for 4-12 minutes. When they asked him what it was like being dead, he said it was like listening to Yankees announcer Phil Rizzuto during a rain delay.
Never is a concept the Yankees won't ever come across.
It's impossible to explain to a Yankee what `tacky' is. They simply have no word for it up north, but my God, do they ever need one.
I was trying to land an 18-year-old strapping first baseman from Blanco, Texas, population 200. His name was Willie Upshaw. It turned out there were only three scouts who knew about Willie - Dave Yocum and I working for the Yankees, and Al LaMacchia from the Atlanta Braves.
