To me, baseball is as honorable as any other business. It is the most honest pastime in the world. It has to be, or it could not last a season out. Crookedness and baseball do not mix. It has become immeasurably more popular as the years have gone by. It will be greater yet. This year, 1919, is the greatest season of them all. -- Charles Comiskey
Baseball is continuity. Pitch to pitch. Inning to inning. Season to season. -- Ernie Harwell
