Quotes from Angels in the Outfield (1994)
1
JP: You used to be Mel Clark? Mel Clark: Yeah! I used to be.
2
[Upon taking a picture with George Knox and Roger] Photographer: It looks like a prison photo.
3
George Knox: We don't think as a team. We don't play as a team. WE CANT EVEN LOSE AS A TEAM.
4
George Knox: Any loss is hard.
5
Ranch Wilder: But this one really got to you. You leave Cincinnati after ten years of winning ball clubs - although the really big one always seemed to be just out of reach - and you come out here to manage our Angels. Now, expectations were high that you could turn this team around. But that just doesn't seem to be happening.
6
George Knox: You oughtta know how one incident can change the course of events.
7
Ranch Wilder: Well, you know, you play the game. You take your chances. Sometimes, you're just in the wrong place at the wrong time. George Knox: Yeah, you're an expert at that. Ranch Wilder: I could say the same about you. George Knox: Well, actions speak louder than words.
8
Roger Bomman: Dad, when do you think we'll get to be a family again? Mr. Bomman: I'd say when the Angels win the pennant.
9
Roger Bomman: God, if there is a God, maybe you can help them win a little?
10
Al the Boss Angel: No one can see me or hear me but you!
11
George Knox: There's a thing, called talent, THEY DON'T HAVE IT!
12
[Finishing a prayer] Roger Bomman: Amen. Oh... and A-woman, too.
13
George Knox: Gimme the ball. Frank Gates: It ain't my fault. You need a new outfield! George Knox: [yelling] You're outta here! Gimme the ball! Frank Gates: You want the ball? Here you go, go get it. Want my glove? Go get it. [Gates and Knox fight] George Knox: Get outta here! You're finished, Gates! You're washed up! You'll never pitch again!
14
George Knox: You blew your arm out, played on too many pain pills. Mel Clark: Pain pills? You were the one stuffin' them down my throat five years ago in Cincinnati. George Knox: Hey, it was your decision to swallow 'em!
15
Mapel: It's a big bummer no matter who we play. We give the game away 'cause we can't win. That would be a sin. We even lose the games before they begin. George Knox: Save it, Mapel!
16
Danny Hemmerling: I guess no matter how many times you hear that song played in a Major League stadium, on a warm afternoon, it's still emotionally evocative. George Knox: Drop dead. I got sunscreen in my eye.
17
[the players are touching a post as they walk into the locker room] Frank Gaits: Why do you idiots do that after you've lost? Ray Mitchell: It's for good luck, man. Danny Hemmerling: After 15 straight losses, I say we find something else to rub. Pablo Garcia: How about Triscuitt's head? Triscuitt Messmer: Don't even think about touching me anywhere. Jose Martinez: Fatty pants. Whitt Bass: You know, maybe we should do this before we lose.
18
Ranch Wilder: Whit Bass takes the mound his oddball antics are now well known to the fans. Wally: That's right Ranch. This season alone we've seen him lick dirt, eat bugs and floss his catcher's teeth in the dugout. Ranch Wilder: None of that I might add seems to have helped his pitching. He's 2-11.
19
Ranch Wilder: League rules specify that up until the first pitch is thrown the team roster can be altered although I don't ever remembering this happen so close to game time. Wally: Neither can I. Ranch Wilder: [Turns off both mics] Easy Wally, less is more.
20
Hank Murphy: Ranch, you're fired. Ranch Wilder: You can't fire me! I've got a contract! I'M RANCH WILDER! Wally: Easy Ranch, less is more.
21
Ranch Wilder: I'm checking to see if Dan Prince pulled a muscle during his warmup tosses. There has to be some reason why Knox would make such a radical change. I have personally checked the stats sports fans and it says that Mel Clark has not started a game in this decade.
22
Al the Boss Angel: Even though you can't see us we're always watching.
23
Hank Murphy: Are you feeling better today? George Knox: Why would I be feeling better? Hank Murphy: Commissioner's fined you $5,000 for you jumping Gates. And word has it Ranch is pressing civil charges for you popping him. George Knox: You know I have felt better since I slugged Wilder. Hank Murphy: Your pistol's smoking pal. George Knox: I hadn't made the connection. Hank Murphy: I know you two have been at each others throats for a while. George Knox: We've been at each others throats since he spiked my knee and ruined my career. Hank Murphy: Accidents happen George. George Knox: No, It's not an accident. When you slide into a catcher with your nails up, it's on purpose.
24
George Knox: I want you all here at 9 am tomorrow cause we're all going to work on fundamentals Whitt Bass: Well doesn't the game start at 1? George Knox: Yeah it does start at 1 and you're a jack-ass Whitt Bass: Oh no, i'm a pitcher Jose Martinez: Well you're a pitcher and a jack-ass
25
George Knox: You can't go through life thinking everyone you need will one day let you down.
