This is Baseball....

"In our sun-down perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing 'base,' a certain game of 'ball.' Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms. The game of ball is glorious."-- Walt Whitman

"It seems to me that the one unalloyed joy in life is baseball...I have snatched my share of joy from the grudging hands of fate as i have jogged along, but never has life held for me anything quite so entrancing as baseball.....When we heard of the professional game in which men cared nothing whatever for patriotism but only for money--games in which rival towns would hire the best players from a natural enemy--we could scarely believe the tale was true. No Ohio boy would any more give aid and comfort to a rival town than would a loyal soldier open a gate in the wall and let an enemy march in". -- Clarence Darrow

"The fundamental reason for the popularity of the game is the fact that it is a national safety valve. A young, ambitious, and growing nation needs to let off steam. Baseball serves the same purpose as a revolution in Central America, or a thunderstorm on a hot day. A tonic, an exercise, Baseball is second only to death as a leveler. So long as it remains a national game, America will abide no Monarchy, and anarchy will be too slow. -- Alan Sangreve

"Football is to baseball as blackjack is to bridge. One is the quick jolt. The other the deliberate, slow-paced game of skill, but never was a sport more ideally suited to television than baseball. It's all there in front of you. It's theatre, really. The star is the spotlight on the mound, the supporting cast fanned out around him, the mathematical precision of the game moving with the kind of inevitability of Greek tragedy. With the Greek chorus in the bleachers!" -- Vin Scully

It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. -- A. Bartlett Giamitti

“Baseball is a red-blooded sport for red-blooded men. It's no pink tea, and mollycoddles had better stay out. It's a struggle for supremacy, a survival of the fittest." -- Ty Cobb
