Looking for a good basball quote

[InsomniacInkRoss]

I am looking for a good quote about ballparks being like cathedrals

 

I am looking for more of a standalone statement, the Bull Durham line is kind of mixed in with other stuff in a list

 

As always, I expect someone to nail this, and usually by the time I check back, Thanks in advance

There's this one:

 

"Baseball is like church. Many attend but few understand." - Leo Durocher (or Wes Westrum?)

[InsomniacInkRoss]

I like it, but I am looking for something more on the majestic nature of the ballpark itself

"Ballparks rock." -Me

Didn't find any in here specific to the ballpark request, but thought most were worth sharing anyhow

I'm gonna go ahead and place a vote for this. Very nice.

Not to change the tune, but my favorite one that makes me think of Shambrano is Uecker's quote from Major League, "this guy even he threw at his kid during the Yankees father-son game."
