Film Quote of the Day: A League of Their Own



Jimmy Dugan: Evelyn, could you come here for a second? Which team do you play for? 
Evelyn Gardner: Well, I'm a Peach. 
Jimmy Dugan: Well I was just wonderin' why you would throw home when we got a two-run lead. You let the tying run get on second base and we lost the lead because of you. Start using your head. That's the lump that's three feet above your ass. 
[Evelyn starts to cry] 
Jimmy Dugan: Are you crying? Are you crying? ARE YOU CRYING? There's no crying! THERE'S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL! 
Doris Murphy: Why don't you give her a break, Jimmy... 
Jimmy Dugan: Oh, you zip it, Doris! Rogers Hornsby was my manager, and he called me a talking pile of pigshit. And that was when my parents drove all the way down from Michigan to see me play the game. And did I cry? 
Evelyn Gardner: No, no, no. 
Jimmy Dugan: Yeah! NO. And do you know why? 
Evelyn Gardner: No... 
Jimmy Dugan: Because there's no crying in baseball. THERE'S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL! No crying!
