Having a pitch clock, if you have ball-strike implications, that's messing with the fabric of the game. There's no clock in baseball, and there's no clock in baseball for a reason.

Max Scherzer

The clock doesn't matter in baseball. Time stands still or moves backwards. Theoretically, one game could go on forever. Some seem to.

Herb Caen

It doesn't matter how late I come home - it could be two o'clock, three o'clock in the morning - I have to take off my makeup.

Anastasia Soare

I think baseball represents something closer to our experience. There's no clock in baseball; it's not over until it's over. It's like life in that there are prolonged periods of boredom and monotony, punctuated by intense moments of excitement and sometimes terror.

Bennett Miller

Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You "take in" a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

Charles Krauthammer

Charles Krauthammer

Although the world proved not yet ready for the brotherhood of baseball, that would be only a matter of time, baseball magnates believed.

John Thorn

It (baseball) has no clock, no ties and no Liberal intrusions into the organized progression.

George Will

In baseball, you can't kill the clock. You've got to give the other man his chance. That's why this is the greatest game.

Earl Weaver

A functional biological clock has three components: input from the outside world to set the clock, the timekeeping mechanism itself, and genetic machinery that allows the clock to regulate expression of a variety of genes.

Jeffrey C. Hall

The first thing baseball wants to do is make you a superstar and then say that you owe baseball something. I don't owe baseball anything. Baseball owes me.

Hank Aaron

Baseball has been something that's always been in my blood. It was just something I was bound to do no matter what. I was going to play baseball.

Eddy Alvarez

A golf ball is like a clock. Always hit it at 6 o'clock and make it go toward 12 o'clock. But make sure you're in the same time zone.

Chi Chi Rodriguez

And blessed are they who have learned the rhythms of the invisible clock whose hours and minutes are immense and soundless. The great clock of the seasons and the years, and the small clock of the intuition, whose timing is guided by the heart.

Josephine Winslow Johnson

You have to watch the clock constantly because youre only allowed out of your home for a limited period, and for a busy person, watching the clock and knowing other people are watching the clock is extremely difficult.

Martha Stewart

Wherever I am, I start my day, it's the same. I'm not an early bird. I'm not waking up at five o'clock, six o'clock; it's usually seven-thirty, eight o'clock, and I will then read the newspapers, emails from around the world and make phone calls.
