Great Ralph Kiner Quotes

As a lifetime Met fan, I grew up with Ralph Kiner, Lindsay Nelson and Bob Murphy. I watched so many Met games that I feel like they were part of my extended family. Couldn't watch a Met game without ending the game with Kiner's Korner. Besides being a great announcing trio, no one had more funny malaprops than Ralph Kiner.
