- Announcer: And it just goes to show you... You can be the smallest, you can be the weakest, you can be the worst player on the field, but when people tell you you're no good, and say you should give it up, you know what you do? You just keep on swinging.
- Yankee Irving: [Yankee and Darlin' have just had a bonding moment] Thanks, Darlin'.
- Darlin': No, no. Thank you, Yankee.
- Screwie: Oh, brother! You could pour this stuff on pancakes!
- Yankee Irving: That guard had to have stolen Babe Ruth's bat!
- Screwie: Why would a guard working at Yankee Stadium steal Babe Ruth's bat? Now, if it were somebody workin' at the stadium in Chicago, I could see that...
- [Screwie has fallen off Yankee's backpack and is bouncing down the fire escape]
- Screwie: My head! My butt! My head! My butt!
- Napoleon Cross: [talking about Babe Ruth] What's he got that I haven't got? He's got a World Series trophy! And I want one! Is that too much to ask?
- Napoleon Cross: [screams] What?
- Lefty Maginnis: Mr. Cross, it's Lefty.
- Napoleon Cross: Lefty, my boy, the plan is working. The Series is virtually in the bag. Where are you?
- Lefty Maginnis: Where am I? I'm on the... I'm on the phone in Toledo, Ohio. I... I just needed to change trains.
- Napoleon Cross: Do you have the at-bay with you?
- Lefty Maginnis: The bat is... It's on its way to Chicago, boss.
- Napoleon Cross: If the bat's on its way, but you're in Toledo, I'm feeling like you're not being completely honest with me, Lefty. You don't have the bat, do you?
- Lefty Maginnis: I'm... I...
- Napoleon Cross: You moron! There's one game left in this Series. If I don;t have that bat in my paws before it starts, you don't have a job, Lefty! All right?
- Lefty Maginnis: You know what I think? I think there's trouble with this line, boss.
- Napoleon Cross: Hello? Hello?
- Lefty Maginnis: I think the phone isn't working!
- Napoleon Cross: Operator? Operator?
- Lefty Maginnis: Can you hear me, boss?
- Napoleon Cross: Operator?
- Lefty Maginnis: Hello? Hello?
- Napoleon Cross: Lefty, hello?
- Lefty Maginnis: [Lefty hangs up the phone and thinks Napoleon Cross can't hear him] What a jerk!
- Napoleon Cross: What was that, Lefty?
- Lefty Maginnis: I said, the phone doesn't work.
- Napoleon Cross: Lefty, who has the bat?
- Lefty Maginnis: The phone doesn't work.
- Napoleon Cross: I said, who has the bat, Lefty?
- Lefty Maginnis: Work! Work! Work!
- Napoleon Cross: Hello?
- Napoleon Cross: [the phone breaks and Lefty is struck by lightning] Fine.
