Baseball has played a major and minor role in motion pictures for nearly a century. Whether you recall Gary Cooper playing Lou Gehrig in Pride of the Yankees or Tom Hanks simply mentioning he was the coach of the high school baseball team in Saving Private Ryan, there have been some great quotations in and about baseball movies. To that end Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a unique collection of quotations made in baseball movies, about baseballmovies, and a special section or two...
"If you build it, he will come." - Kevin Costner

"I still get such a bang out of it, playing ball. Same as I did when I first come up. You get out there and the stands are full and everybody is cheering. It is like everbody in the world come to see you. Inside that there is the players in there and there yakking it up and the pitcher throws and your looking for that pill and suddenly there is nothing else in the ballpark you and it and sometimes when your feeling right and there is a groove there and the bat just eases into it and meets that ball. When the bat meets that ball you can feel that ball just give and you know it is going to go a long way. Damn, if you don't feel like your going to live forever." - John Cusac as Buck Weaver in Eight Men Out (1988)

"The one constant through all the years has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again.

Quotes From Bull Durham (1988)

"God, the sucker teed-off on that like he knew I was gonna throw a fast ball. He did know. How? I told him."
"I'm your new catcher and you just got lesson number one: don't think, it can only hurt the ballclub."

"Who the hell are you? I'm the player to be named later."
"Yeah, I was in the show. I was in the show for twenty-one days once."
"You guys...you lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. You know what that makes you? Lollygaggers!"
