Quotes
-
Ricky Stratton : I don't say this to a lot of girls, but... you're a great guy.
Billie : But I'm not a guy! I'm a girl.
Ricky Stratton : I know - but thank God you never act like one!
-
Ricky Stratton : Dad, I've got a problem that's really bugging me.
Edward Stratton III : What's her name?
Ricky Stratton : Why do you always assume it's a girl? I've got other problems. It could be about school, or one of the guys.
Edward Stratton III : Is it about school, or one of the guys?
Ricky Stratton : No - it's about a girl.
-
Ricky Stratton : I don't want her to change.
Edward Stratton III : Rick, everything changes. In fact, the absurd man is he who never changes... I got that in a fortune cookie. Been waiting eight years to use it.
-
Billie : Hi, Rick.
Ricky Stratton : You... you're...
Billie : I'm what?
Ricky Stratton : You're pretty!
-
Kate Summers : I think you should stop thinking of Billie as one of the guys, and start thinking of her as one of the girls.
Ricky Stratton : [scoffs] Why would I want to do a thing like that?
Kate Summers : Because she has a crush on you.
Ricky Stratton : A what?
Kate Summers : A crush. She just told me so.
Ricky Stratton : Billie? Oh, no. A pitcher, in love with a catcher?
[He grimaces]
Ricky Stratton : Kate, that's sick!
-
Ricky Stratton : [on being friends with his teammate] Her falling in love with me is gonna change all that.
Edward Stratton III : Does it have to?
Ricky Stratton : Sure - if I go out to the mound for a conference, she's liable to hug me or something.
-
Edward Stratton III : She's not the first girl to succumb to your charms.
Ricky Stratton : Why am I cursed with this animal magnetism? What is it that draws women to... the Ricker?
Edward Stratton III : Well, I think we can rule out humility.
