You don’t believe me? All right, well then maybe you’ll believe William Shakespeare:
Base men by his endowments are made great.
—Richard II

No shit, Sherlock (or Shylock).
And then there’s this all-purpose taunt of opposing batters (useful for whenever The Great Santana takes the mound), from Love’s Labor’s Lost:
Thou canst not hit it, hit it, hit it,
Thou canst not hit it, my good man.
