It is a little known secret there exists a great correlation between
famous movie quotes and baseball. I submit the following:
“We’re not in Kansas anymore.”
– A Royals road trip.
“I coulda been a contender.”
– The Mets fail again to make the playoffs.
“Go ahead, make my day.”
-Hey, batter, you like my 100 mph fastball?
“You talking to me?”
– Ump arguing with a player over a called third strike.
“What we have is a failure to communicate.”
– Pitcher and catcher can’t agree on signals.
“The stuff that dreams are made of.”
– All teams in spring training.
“Show me the money.”
– Contract negotiations
“I’m walking here.”
– Batter getting four balls and heading to first.
“I want to be alone.”
– Reliever giving up walk-off hit.
“Well, nobody’s perfect”
– Pitcher losing a no-hit bid.
“It’s alive, alive.”
– A rookie pitcher’s fastball.
