I remember where I was-what Beatles fan doesn't when I heard that John Lennon was shot.

Hello? Who? - I am sorry, you have the wrong number.

Speed, a strong arm, a good bat-these are the tools every center fielder should possess.

The bus ride-the long, boring, bumpy bus ride took twice as long as they said it would.

Thanks for the delivery and here's your-wait, there's no pepperoni on the pizza!
