A Quote by Gerrit Cole

You've got to try to close every inning out, take it one inning at a time, one batter at a time. — © Gerrit Cole
You've got to try to close every inning out, take it one inning at a time, one batter at a time.
We've got to decide, how much replay do we want? Because if you start doing it from the first inning to the ninth inning, you may have to time the game with a calendar.
One strange quality of writing about political campaigns is that it's a little like writing about a baseball game inning by inning. We presume we can say something about the final result from the state of play a third of the way through. You can when a game is a colossal blowout, but you can't when it's close.
I really believe that what happens one day affects the next, and I think that came from that experience of learning that if I told the score inning by inning, play by play, it built up to its natural climax.
I would love to say that I have an eighth-inning guy, a seventh-inning guy, a left-handed guy, a long guy.
Baseball is continuity. Pitch to pitch. Inning to inning. Season to season.
Any time you can go out there and throw 12 pitches in any inning, you give your team some momentum coming in and get some confidence out on the mound.
Life's like a ball game. You gotta take a swing at whatever comes along before you wake up and find out it's the ninth inning.
all through my childhood, my father kept from me the knowledge that the daily papers printed daily box scores, allowing me to believe that without my personal renderings of all those games he missed while he was at work, he would be unable to follow our team in the only proper way a team should be followed, day by day, inning by inning. In other words, without me, his love for baseball would be forever incomplete.
If I've got a good pinch-hitter, I hate to have him stay on the bench with men on the bases in an early inning. He may end the game right there.
In Little League back in Oklahoma, I struck out 14 batters in a six-inning game, and we won the state championship.
We ought to take good care of everybody we have on the planet, but we ought to regulate the rate at which people join us. The old saying is, "It's the top of the ninth inning, and humanity has been hitting nature hard, but you've always got to remember that nature bats last."
The ballgame is over...in this inning.
No one wants to be known as a six-inning guy.
It's never over. You don't want to be in the position to be down four runs in the ninth inning, but it's not over until the last out.
At the end of the day, it's a series of individual challenges played out against a team defense. It's a psersonal test every time I step into the batter's box: Can I do better than the last time? And that's why I love it.
The Cards lead the Dodgers 4-2 after one inning and that one hasn't even started.
