Quotes
-
Manny Delgado : I'm going to march out there and swing as hard as I can. And if every sports movie is correct, I'm going to smack that ball, and everyone will chant my name as I round the bases. By the way, it is always counterclockwise, or do I get to choose?
Luke Dunphy : I don't think it's gonna matter.
-
Cameron Tucker : [surveying a lot for a baseball field] I see home plate up here. I see pitcher's mound in here, and I see little boys' dreams coming true everywhere.
Luke Dunphy : I found a dead snake!
Claire Dunphy : It's perfect.
Luke Dunphy : [running away] Not dead! Not dead!
Claire Dunphy : I'm gonna be mother of the year.
-
Luke Dunphy : Keep your eyes open.
Manny Delgado : It's not natural when you have a ball hurtling at your face.
-
Luke Dunphy : Some men are born into greatness, others have it chucked at their face.

Claire Dunphy : Luke and Manny's team tied for the final spot in the playoffs, but since nobody was expecting it, all the fields were booked.
Luke Dunphy : The other team wanted to settle with a coin flip. We said "rock, paper, scissors." That's when talks broke down.
Claire Dunphy : So what do you do when you can't find a field? You build one.
Luke Dunphy : And we got the last laugh, 'cause guess what I found there? Rocks, paper, and scissors.
-
Luke Dunphy : Will you choke up a little?
Manny Delgado : Probably when they play the national anthem.
Luke Dunphy : No, move your hands up the bat.
[scoffing]
Luke Dunphy : "When they play the national anthem."
Manny Delgado : [in testimonial interviews] I had a perfect record: 22 games, and I hadn't played a single inning. Then the McCoy twins' grandma dies, and suddenly I'm starting at right field. What does that even mean? Is it the same as stage right?
-
Luke Dunphy : All right, ready? Nice and easy.
[Manny flinches]
Luke Dunphy : I haven't even thrown it yet.
Manny Delgado : Then it's your fault. I'm doing my part.
Luke Dunphy : Forget it. We need to do something different. Let's change your stance. Try leaning in. Further. Now close your eyes.
Manny Delgado : [getting hit with his pitch] Ow!
Luke Dunphy : Ah, perfect! You think you can do that every time?
Manny Delgado : What, get hit on purpose?
Luke Dunphy : If you wanna get on base and be a hero.

Gloria Delgado-Pritchett : Manny, stand up straight!
Jay Pritchett : But bend your knees.
Claire Dunphy : Widen your stance!
Manny Delgado : Would you please let me just...
Phil Dunphy : [Manny is hit by the pitch] Ooh!
Umpire : Take your base!
Luke Dunphy : You did it!
Manny Delgado : I did it?
Luke Dunphy : Run, Manny!
Manny Delgado : [running towards third] Yeah!
Jay Pritchett : No, no, no, no! Not that way! Go this way! Oh, why do I bother? He's gonna do what he wants.
