Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"In his (Hall of Fame Manager Joe McCarthy) living room there was nothing about baseball, except for two pictures. One was a picture of Lou Gehrig, with the words: 'May I always deserve your friendship.' The other was a picture of Connie Mack. On it Mr. Mack had penned a simple inscription: 'To a great manager and a great friend.' As (Williams) Ted look at Connie Mack's picture, McCarthy said, 'You are wrong about me, Ted. There was the greatest manager of all time.'" - Author Alan Howard Levy in Joe McCarthy: Architect of the Yankee Dynasty (McFarland Publishing, 03/29/2005, Page 384) [Connie Mack Quotes]

Did you know that Connie Mack was the longest-serving manager in Major League Baseball history and The Tall Tactician still holds records for most wins (3,731), most losses (3,948), and most games managed (7,755)? Perhaps it had something to do with the code of conduct he created circa 1916 that his players had to follow:

Connie Mack Code of Conduct

I will always play the game to the best of my ability.

I will always play to win, but if I lose, I will not look for an excuse to detract from my opponent's victory.

I will never take an unfair advantage in order to win.

I will always abide by the rules of the game, on the diamond as well as in my daily life.

I will always conduct myself as a true sportsman, on and off the playing field.

I will always strive for the good of the entire team rather than for my own glory.

I will never gloat in victory or pity myself in defeat.

I will do my utmost to keep myself clean, physically, mentally, and morally.

I will always judge a teammate or an opponent as an individual and never on the basis of race or religion.

Connie Mack Hall of Fame Plaque
