This quote is paraphrased from the original quote by the famous Baseball player, Satchel Paige (1906 - 1983): "You win a few, you lose a few. Some get rained out. But you got to dress for all of them." Satchel's quote is often paraphrased as "You win some, you lose some and some get rained out, but you have to suit up for them all." It is incorrectly attributed to J. Askenberg (unknown individual) on a few websites.
