Satchel Paige passed away on this day in 1982. He was one of the greatest players to ever play the game of baseball. He was ground breaking for black baseball players and you can't tell the story of baseball without the name Satchel Paige.
Today Mike and Austin remembered him for his incredible wit. Here are his best quotes!
- "Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it don’t matter."
- "Don't eat fried food, it angries up the blood."
- "Don't look back. Something might be gaining on you."
- "How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are?"
- "Money and women. They're two of the strongest things in the world. The things you do for a woman you wouldn't do for anything else. Same with money."
- "My pitching philosophy is simple; you gotta keep the ball off the fat part of the bat."
