As Stengel's bench coach, Westrum sat next to Casey every day. "I remember one game when a Met pitcher was losing his stuff. I said to Casey, 'this guy's getting clobbered,' and Casey said, 'I know. I want him to go nine innings so I can get rid of him tomorrow.'" - Baseball Digest

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
