A scene from A League of Their Own 1992
Jimmy Dugan

Evelyn, could you come here for a second? Which team do you play for?

Evelyn Gardner

Well, I'm a Peach.

Jimmy

Well I was just wonderin' why you would throw home when we got a two-run lead. You let the tying run get on second base and we lost the lead because of you. Start using your head. That's the lump that's three feet above your ass.

Jimmy

[Evelyn starts to cry.]

Are you crying? Are you crying? Are you crying? There's no crying! There's no crying in baseball!

Doris Murphy

Why don't you give her a break, Jimmy?

Jimmy

Oh, zip it, Doris! Rogers Hornsby was my manager and he called me a talking pile of pig shit - and that was when my parents drove all the way down from Michigan to see me play the game! And did I cry?

Evelyn

(inbetween sobs)

No, no, no ...

Jimmy

Yeah, no! And do you know why?

Evelyn

No ...

Jimmy

Because there's no crying in baseball. There's no crying in baseball--no crying!
