Tommy Lasorda
If he raced his pregnant wife he'd finish third.

Everybody wants to win, but everybody doesn't win.
Tommy Lasorda
Say 'Dodgers' and people know you're talking about baseball. Say 'Braves' and they ask, 'What reservation?' Say 'Reds' and they think of communism. Say 'Padres' and they look around for a priest.
Tommy Lasorda
The saddest day of the year is the day baseball season ends.
Tommy Lasorda
When you - when you become the manager of a major league team, particularly the Dodgers, to me, that's a privilege and an honor. No matter where you go or what you do, you represent that position that you have. And you represent that organization that gave you the opportunity to be doing what you're doing.
