I love baseball, which means the World Series is must-see TV. Tonight, the Kansas City Royals and the San Francisco Giants begin the best of seven series for the Commissioner’s Trophy.  As a baseball fan, I’ll certainly be watching even though my Yankees aren’t playing. To mark the occasion, here are some quotes about baseball that also apply to any workplace:

Every strike brings me closer to the next homerun. -Babe Ruth

There are three types of baseball players: those who make it happen, those who watch it happen and those who wonder what happens. -Tommy Lasorda

Everyday is a new opportunity. You can build on yesterday’s success or put its failures behind and start over again. That’s the way life is, with a new start every day and that’s the way baseball is. -Bob Feller

It’s supposed to be hard. If it wasn’t hard, everyone would do it. The hard…is what makes it great. -A League of Their Own

Do you have a favorite baseball quote? Who are you cheering for to win the World Series?
