"Out at third"
General Doubleday

Actually, my favorite Civil War quote is from Admiral Farragut - "*beep* the torpedos, full speed ahead".

I'd have to say that my favorite civil-war era quote is:
"They couldn't hit an elephant at this distance"
- Union General John Sedgwick spoke these words just moments before being shot dead by a confederate sniper at Spotsylvania.
