Past simple

When you got to the majors, you played only one inning of one game.

Bottom of the eighth inning, we were way ahead.

I'd been up with the club for three weeks, but I hadn't seen any action.

Suddenly old John McGraw points a bony finger in my direction...

I jumped up like I was sitting on a spring.

Grabbed my glove, and ran out on the field.

They never hit the ball out of the infield.

I couldn't bear the thought of another year in the minors.

It was like coming this close to your dreams...

...and then watching them brush past you, like a stranger in a crowd.

We don't recognize our most significant moments while they're happening.

Back then I thought, "Well, there'll be other days."

What's so interesting about half an inning that would make you come from Iowa...

...to talk to me about it 50 years after it happened.

...but I think it's to ask you, if you could do anything you wanted...

And you're the kind of man who could grant me that wish?

You know, I never got to bat in the major leagues.

I'd have liked to have had that chance, just once...

Stare him down, then just as he goes into his windup, wink.

Make him think you know something he doesn't.

The chance to squint at a sky so blue that it hurts your eyes to look at it.

To feel the tingle in your arms as you connect with the ball.

To run the bases, stretch a double into a triple...

Is there enough magic out there in the moonlight...

- What would you say if I said yes? - I think I'd actually believe you.
