I've been ignored by prettier women than you, but none who carried the heavy pitchers of silence so far, without spilling a drop.
Jeffrey McDaniel
Image
There are only two things a manager needs to know: When to change pitchers and how to get along with your players.
Bucky Harris
Image
The pitcher has to find out if the hitter is timid. And if the hitter is timid, he has to remind the hitter he's timid.
Don Drysdale
Image
My own little rule was two for one. If one of my teammates got knocked down, then I knocked down two on the other team.

Image
If you are used to going five innings and then go six or seven, you won't have your good stuff. They need to start that from the minor leagues and give pitchers strong arms.
Juan Marichal
Image
Coaching third with a pitcher on base is like being a member of a bomb disposal squad. The thing could blow up in your face at any moment.
Rocky Bridges
Image
I didn't feel empty. I wished I'd felt empty. ... I wanted to be empty like an overturned pitcher. But I was full like a stone.
Jonathan Safran Foer
Image
You must not be afraid of small bits of silence. To use it well is the height of confidence and skill for a comedian. It increases the tension in a good way and adds contrast like a curveball complements the fastball of a good pitcher.
Franklyn Ajaye
Image
Avoid him who talks sweetly before you but tries to ruin you behind your back, for he is like a pitcher of poison with milk on top.
Chanakya
Image
The pitcher goes so often to the fountain that if gets broken.
Miguel de Cervantes
Image
I figured that pitchers had a better chance of getting drafted than fielders, so I decided I should be a pitcher. But I never expected to be picked in the first round. I wasn't even sure I'd get picked at all.
Dwight Gooden
Image
Some pitchers want to be known as the fastest throwers that ever lived. Some want to win 30 games in one season. Some want to pitch a no-hitter. All I want to do is the best I can, day after day. In other words, I want to prove I am the best.
Tom Seaver

I've always - outside of the outfielders running over the hump, and it could be slightly dangerous, and it can impact play of course it can. But on the other side I think, again, just if you're pitching, a relief pitcher, I think it's kind of a great place to get involved in a game.
Joe Maddon
Image
A torn rotator cuff is a cancer for a pitcher and if a pitcher gets a badly torn one, he has to face the facts, it's all over baby.
Don Drysdale
Image
The pitcher has got only a ball. I've got a bat. So the percentage in weapons is in my favor and I let the fellow with the ball do the fretting.
Hank Aaron
Image
Pitchers make adjustments, and it's up to the hitters to readjust and sort of tweak what they do.
Joe Torre
Image
I would say I was jock. I went to Sierra College. I was a big baseball player. Getting into the MLB was my dream - to become a left-handed pitcher for the Yankees. That's what I was hoping, but life kind of went the other way.
Ryan Guzman
Image
Momentum is only as good as tomorrow's starting pitcher.
Earl Weaver
Image
I believe it is a tradition in baseball that when a pitcher has a no-hitter going, no one reminds him of it.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
Image
I might have been able to make it as a pitcher except for one thing: I had a rather awkward motion and every time I brought my left arm forward I hit myself in the ear.
Casey Stengel
Image
When I was younger and inexperienced, I was a very animated pitcher. I pitched with a lot of adrenaline. I was my own worst enemy when things weren't gong well.
Randy Johnson
Image
Liza poured thick batter from a pitcher onto a soapstone griddle. The hot cakes rose like little hassocks, and small volcanoes formed and erupted on them until they were ready to be turned. A cheerful brown, they were, with tracings of darker brown. And the kitchen was full of the good sweet smell of them.
John Steinbeck
Image
I think that a starting pitcher has to do something special to be as valuable or more so than a position player.
Justin Verlander
Image
Break your pitcher against a rock. We don't need any longer to haul pieces of the ocean around.
