  • The Sam Tuttle line about a reason not to be a Yankee and the observation that baseball counts everything are quote candidates.
  • Scully's passage about pitching against time and pushing the sun back into the sky is the preferred quote for one speaker.
  • The cathedral belonging to a Chapel line divides the speakers, praised by one and considered forced by the other.
  • The flashlight doubling joke is an additional quote candidate.
