[while he and Lorri are lying in bed, their baby crying in the other room] I'll get her.

Was that a real, "I'll get her"? Or are you just waiting for me to say, "Go back to sleep"?
Jimmy:
I haven't decided yet.
Lorri:
[gently pats him as she gets up] Go back to sleep.

Jimmy, I just got off the phone with the big club. They're calling up Brooks.

That's great. He won't be back.

He respects you, and I think you ought to be the one to tell him. Being that you're going, too...

TV Reporter:
[interviewing Jimmy after his first major league game] What pitches did you throw to get that strikeout?
Jimmy:
Fastball, fastball, and [chuckling]
Jimmy:
fastball!
TV Reporter:
How did it feel, pitching in the major leagues?
Jimmy:
Just like I hoped it would.
Jimmy:
[to the reporters, seeing his father through the TV lights] Can you excuse me?

Dave Patterson:
Jimmy, how fast were you throwing fifteen years ago?
Jimmy:
Slow enough to where scouts stopped using the word "fast".
Dave Patterson:
Seriously, how fast were you throwing?
Jimmy:
I don't know... 85-86?
Dave Patterson:
You just threw 98 miles an hour.
Jimmy:
Nawww!
Dave Patterson:
Twelve straight pitches, three radar guns. Same thing on all of 'em.
Jimmy:
Look, Dave, there's no way...
Dave Patterson:
Jimmy, I've been a scout for a long time, and the number one rule is, arms slow down when they get old. Now, if I call the office and tell 'em I got a guy here almost twice these kids' age, I'm gonna get laughed at. But, if I don't call in a 98-mile-an-hour fastball, I'm gonna get fired! I'm just saying there's a chance you might get a call on this. [turns to leave, then turns around]
Dave Patterson:
You figure out what I saw out there today, you let me know.
