- If you're blind, git yourself a seem'-eye dog! Kill that ump!
- Where's my pistol! Will somebody go home and get my pistol! Oh, please get my pistol!
- Lovely, lovely, pleasant and gentle, true Brooklyn activities goin' on as usual.
- And then it happened. It starts when this new Dodger comes to the plate.
- The next batter for Brooklyn will be first baseman, Jackie Robinson!
- There was umpires, umpires everywhere and the pitcher hadn't thrown a ball.
- But when this Robinson ups to the plate, some ghostly umpire calls.
- Did you hear that! Did you hear him!
- But you didn't say nothin'. You was quiet, like the bleachers was.
