All I ask is that you bust your heiny on that field.
Casey Stengel
All right everyone, line up alphabetically according to your height.
Casey Stengel
Been in this game one-hundred years, but I see new ways to lose 'em I never knew existed before.
Casey Stengel
Being with a woman all night never hurt no professional baseball player. It's staying up all night looking for a woman that does him in.
Casey Stengel
Can't anybody here play this game?
Casey Stengel
Don't cut my throat, I may want to do that later myself.
Casey Stengel
Don't drink in the hotel bar, that's where I do my drinking.
Casey Stengel
Good pitching will always stop good hitting and vice-versa.
Casey Stengel
I came in here and a fella asked me to have a drink. I said I don't drink. Then another fella said hear you and Joe DiMaggio aren't speaking and I said I'll take that drink.
Casey Stengel
I don't know if he throws a spitball but he sure spits on the ball.
Casey Stengel
I don't like them fellas who drive in two runs and let in three.
Casey Stengel
I feel greatly honored to have a ballpark named after me, especially since I've been thrown out of so many.
Casey Stengel
I got players with bad watches - they can't tell midnight from noon.
Casey Stengel
I was not successful as a ball player, as it was a game of skill.
Casey Stengel
I was such a dangerous hitter I even got intentional walks during batting practice.
Casey Stengel
If we're going to win the pennant, we've got to start thinking we're not as good as we think we are.
Casey Stengel
If you're playing baseball and thinking about managing, you're crazy. You'd be better off thinking about being an owner.
Casey Stengel
If you're so smart, let's see you get out of the Army.
Casey Stengel
It's high time something was done for the pitchers. They put up the stands and take down fences to make more home runs and plague the pitchers. Let them revive the spitter and help the pitchers make a living.
Casey Stengel
It's wonderful to meet so many friends that I didn't used to like.
Casey Stengel
Managing is getting paid for home runs someone else hits.
Casey Stengel
Most ball games are lost, not won.
Casey Stengel
Mr. that boy couldn't hit the ground if he fell out of an airplane.
Casey Stengel
My health is good enough about the shoulders.
Casey Stengel
No, even my players aren't players.
Casey Stengel
Now there's three things that can happen in a ballgame: you can win, you can lose, or it can rain.
Casey Stengel
Son, we'd like to keep you around this season but we're going to try and win a pennant.
Casey Stengel
Sure I played, did you think I was born at the age of 70 sitting in a dugout trying to manage guys like you?
Casey Stengel
That kid can hit balls over buildings.
Casey Stengel
The key to being a good manager is keeping the people who hate me away from those who are still undecided.
Casey Stengel
The Mets are gonna be amazing.
Casey Stengel
The secret of managing is to keep the guys who hate you away from the guys who are undecided.
Casey Stengel
The team has come along slow but fast.
Casey Stengel
The trick is growing up without growing old.
Casey Stengel
The trouble with women umpires is that I couldn't argue with one. I'd put my arms around her and give her a little kiss.
Casey Stengel
The Yankees don't pay me to win every day, just two out of three.
Casey Stengel
There comes a time in every man's life, and I've had plenty of them.
Casey Stengel
They got a lot of kids now whose uniforms are so tight, especially the pants, that they cannot bend over to pick up ground balls. And they don't want to bend over in television games because in that way there is no way their face can get on the camera.
Casey Stengel
They say some of my stars drink whiskey, but I have found that ones who drink milkshakes don't win many ball games.
Casey Stengel
They say Yogi Berra is funny. Well, he has a lovely wife and family, a beautiful home, money in the bank, and he plays golf with millionaires. What's funny about that?"
Casey Stengel
They told me my services were no longer desired because they wanted to put in a youth program as an advance way of keeping the club going. I'll never make the mistake of being seventy again.
Casey Stengel
Wake up muscles we're in New York now.
Casey Stengel
We are in such a slump that even the ones that aren't drinkin' aren't hittin'.
Casey Stengel
Well, that's baseball. Rags to riches one day and riches to rags the next. But I've been in it thirty-six years and I'm used to it.
Casey Stengel
When you are younger you get blamed for crimes you never committed and when you're older you begin to get credit for virtues you never possessed. It evens itself out.
Casey Stengel
You can't go out to the mound, hobbling and take a pitcher out with a cane.
Casey Stengel
You got to get twenty-seven outs to win.
Casey Stengel
You have to go broke three times to learn how to make a living.
