The game is full of peaks and valleys, the key is to avoid the Grand Canyon.

I can only guess that, for guys in their 30s and 40s who watched me play, they understood that the score never mattered and my paycheck never mattered (in relation) to how I played. I played with Little League enthusiasm and professional flair. That's what fans are really looking for.

He (Ozzie Smith) plays like he's on a mini-trampoline or wearing helium kangaroo shorts.

My biggest problem in the big leagues is that I can't figure out how to spend forty-three dollars in meal money.

I don't care what you do - baseball or politics - George W. Bush is always going to be compared to his father. I just want it to be an easy answer in 50 years - Who was the better player, me, or my kids? I want it to be my kids.

I have an Alka-Seltzer bat. You know-plop, plop, fizz, fizz, when the pitcher sees me walking up there he says, 'Oh, what a relief it is'.

Good mothers are underrated, just like good defense.
