Joe Torre

Joseph Paul "Joe" Torre (/ˈtɔːri/; born July 18, 1940) is an American professional baseball executive, serving in the capacity of Major League Baseball's (MLB) chief baseball officer since 2011. A former player, manager and television color commentator, Torre ranks fifth all-time in MLB history with 2,326 wins as a manager. With 2,342 hits during his playing career, Torre is the only major leaguer to achieve both 2,000 hits and 2,000 wins as a manager. From 1996 to 2007, he was the manager of the New York Yankees, whom he guided to four World Series championships.

Torre's lengthy and distinguished career in MLB began as a player in 1960 with the Milwaukee Braves, as a catcher, first baseman and third baseman. He also played for the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Mets until becoming a manager in 1977, when he briefly served as the Mets' player-manager. His managerial career covered 29 seasons, including tenures with the same three clubs for which he played, and the Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers, until 2010. From 1984 to 1989, he served as a television color commentator for the California Angels and NBC. After retiring as a manager, he accepted a role assisting the Commissioner of Baseball as the executive vice president of baseball operations.

New York

New York is a state in the Northeastern United States and is the United States' 27th-most extensive, fourth-most populous, and seventh-most densely populated state. New York is bordered by New Jersey and Pennsylvania to the south and Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont to the east. The state has a maritime border in the Atlantic Ocean with Rhode Island, east of Long Island, as well as an international border with the Canadian provinces of Quebec to the north and Ontario to the west and north. The state of New York, with an estimated 19.8 million residents in 2015, is often referred to as New York State to distinguish it from New York City, the state's most populous city and its economic hub.

With an estimated population of nearly 8.5 million in 2014, New York City is the most populous city in the United States and the premier gateway for legal immigration to the United States. The New York City Metropolitan Area is one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world. New York City is a global city, exerting a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment, its fast pace defining the term New York minute. The home of the United Nations Headquarters, New York City is an important center for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world, as well as the world's most economically powerful city. New York City makes up over 40% of the population of New York State. Two-thirds of the state's population lives in the New York City Metropolitan Area, and nearly 40% live on Long Island. Both the state and New York City were named for the 17th century Duke of York, future King James II of England. The next four most populous cities in the state are Buffalo, Rochester, Yonkers, and Syracuse, while the state capital is Albany.

New York Yankees

The New York Yankees are an American professional baseball team based in the Bronx, New York City, New York, that competes in Major League Baseball (MLB). The Yankees are a member of MLB's American League (AL) East division. The Yankees are one of two Major League clubs based in New York, the other being the New York Mets.

The club began play in the AL in the 1901 season as the Baltimore Orioles (not to be confused with the modern Baltimore Orioles.) Frank Farrell and Bill Devery purchased the franchise (which had ceased operations) and moved it to New York City, renaming the club as the New York Highlanders. The Highlanders were officially renamed as the "Yankees" in 1913.

The team is owned by Yankee Global Enterprises, an LLC controlled by the family of George Steinbrenner, who purchased the team in 1973. Former catcher Joe Girardi is the team's manager, and Brian Cashman is the team's general manager. The team's home games were played at Yankee Stadium from 1923 to 1973 and from 1976 to 2008. In 2009, they moved into a new ballpark of the same name after the previous venue closed. The team is perennially among the leaders in MLB attendance—in 2011, the Yankees had the second-highest attendance.

Hall of fame

A hall of fame is a structure housing memorials to famous or illustrious individuals in a certain field, usually chosen by a group of electors. The meaning of "fame" has changed over the years, originally meaning "renown" as opposed to today's more common meaning of "celebrity".

In some cases, these halls of fame consist of actual halls or museums which enshrine the honorees with sculptures, plaques, and displays of memorabilia and general information regarding the inducted recipient/s. Sometimes, the honorees' plaques may instead be posted on a wall (hence a '"wall of fame") or inscribed on a sidewalk (as in a "walk of fame" or an "avenue of fame"). In others, the hall of fame is more figurative and just simply consists of a list of names of noteworthy individuals (or sometimes groups, for ex. Sporting groups or Rock groups) maintained by an organization or community or honouring its inducted members legacy or legend.

The English-language term was popularised in the United States by the Hall of Fame for Great Americans at Bronx Community College, in New York City, completed in 1900. Its inspiration is the Ruhmeshalle ("Hall of Fame") in Munich, Germany. The Walhalla memorial in Bavaria, Germany, is an even earlier hall of fame, conceived in 1807 and built from 1900 to 1907.

Famous quotes by Joe Torre:

"I don't apologize for taking seven Yankees. I think they all have numbers that make their choice appropriate. ... I'd like to be a little greedy here."

"That's what it's all about. You need 25 guys to contribute."

"It's good for the game. It's bad for my stomach."

"Every year, there's going to be someone who's going to be a thorn in your side. This year, it's the Devil Rays. You look at their record lately, and it's not too shabby. They've always had talented people."

"A-Rod is pretty special,"

"[The Yankees have 26 games left, all of them against AL East teams. Only the Red Sox, whom they play six times, are above .500.] We have confidence in our abilities, ... Now it's just up to us to play well."

"Jason has come up in situations and you say, 'We need a home run' and he's hit one. That's storybook stuff."

"It's time to properly honor the Yankees' place in this country's history and create a true Monument Valley large enough for all Americans to see. The Magnificent Seven will join the original four just as soon as someone can figure out a way to carve a 40-foot-high Yogi face."

"Either you give me what I demand, or I'll take what you're offering!"

"When we lost, I couldn't sleep at night. When we win, I can't sleep at night. But, when you win, you wake up feeling better."

"It's huge. You win the first game of the series, you want to win the series."

"It's something you hope doesn't happen. When you sign on to do a job, you hope you'll be able to get it done. But that's not always in your control."

Wade In The Water

Verse 1
So cold smile like it's sunny
Side up but you always runny
Scrambled brain with an empty tummy
This high life it looks so yummy
Honey, they like your dress
They like your heals they like your chest
Everybody knows you rock it the best
You got that look you got finesse
And less, is never more
You want more cause less means poor
You don't wanna have to do your chores
The Filipino lady she can clean all the floors
What's in stores not what's in store
Tryna be hard but you got no core
For your conscience you should note
You never looked so cold in your fucking fur coat
Chorus
Wade in the water
Wade in the water children
Wade in the path that you face
God's going to trouble x2
Verse 2
You saw god soaring above
He was wearing a suit looking all smug
On the brightest cloud with the loudest wings
Even up in heaven they value things
Bring your grit shoot your shit
Kneel at the gates and chat yo chit
Maybe they'll bit your bit
You was always so good at putting on the Ritz
What you willing to do?
With a tuxedo mask you can sail to the moon
A hand full of hearts and a heart full of spades
Dye your hair but baby it fades
Wade in the water child
Up to your knees in jewels and smiles
In the tide hide your tracks
And when it goes out
Don't look back
Chorus X2
Bridge
See that girl all dressed in red
Seems like we never met
See that girl all dressed in blue
She don't know what she running too
See that girl all dressed in white
Somebody got to show her the light
See that girl all dressed in black
Somebody's got to bring her back
Chorus X3
If you get there before I do
Gods going to trouble the water
Tell my friends I'm going to get there soon

Famous quotes by Joe Torre:

"I don't apologize for taking seven Yankees. I think they all have numbers that make their choice appropriate. ... I'd like to be a little greedy here."

"That's what it's all about. You need 25 guys to contribute."

"It's good for the game. It's bad for my stomach."

"Every year, there's going to be someone who's going to be a thorn in your side. This year, it's the Devil Rays. You look at their record lately, and it's not too shabby. They've always had talented people."

"A-Rod is pretty special,"

"[The Yankees have 26 games left, all of them against AL East teams. Only the Red Sox, whom they play six times, are above .500.] We have confidence in our abilities, ... Now it's just up to us to play well."

"Jason has come up in situations and you say, 'We need a home run' and he's hit one. That's storybook stuff."

"It's time to properly honor the Yankees' place in this country's history and create a true Monument Valley large enough for all Americans to see. The Magnificent Seven will join the original four just as soon as someone can figure out a way to carve a 40-foot-high Yogi face."

"Either you give me what I demand, or I'll take what you're offering!"

"When we lost, I couldn't sleep at night. When we win, I can't sleep at night. But, when you win, you wake up feeling better."

"It's huge. You win the first game of the series, you want to win the series."

"It's something you hope doesn't happen. When you sign on to do a job, you hope you'll be able to get it done. But that's not always in your control."
