Coach Quote #21
Quote from Coach in The Tortelli Tort
Coach: Well, here, try to miss me. [Diane groans] Diane, stand right there. Now, I got the batter's box marked off back there at exactly 60 feet, six inches. You ready? OK, here we go.
Diane: Has he done this before?
Sam: Lots.
Coach: [o.s.] Come on, Diane. Back in those days, we didn't wear batting helmets either.
Diane: Sam, this is ridiculous.
Sam: He's gonna stay back there all night unless you throw the ball.
Coach: [o.s.] OK, honey, I'm ready. Let her rip!
Man: Come on, baby.
Diane: All right! I'm not going to get it anywhere near him.
Sam: That's the whole point.
[When Diane throws the ball, a thumping sound is heard]
Coach: [o.s.] I'm on my way to first.
Norm: Way to hum, girl. Right on the old honeydew.
Coach: I really had to dive for that one, but I still got the old touch.

Quote from Coach
Norm: Hey, that Ed guy is not my favorite person.
Coach: I think he's a big pansy making a big fuss over some intense pain. How many times did you play hurt, Sam?
Sam: Now and then.
Coach: I must've got hit by 100 fastballs. As a matter of fact, it became a specialty of mine.
Diane: Wait. You specialized in getting hit?
Coach: Yeah.
Norm: Yeah, he led the league in HBPs two years in a row.
Sam: Hit By Pitches.
Coach: See, I perfected it when I was down with the St Louis Browns organization, Diane. I could get to first base on any pitch. I mean, what I'd do was, I'd get up there and lean my body into the pitch, all right? Well, sometimes I took one right in the old melon. Only, I really made a science out of it. I became a master.
