It never ceases to amaze me how many of baseball's wounds are self-inflicted.
Baseball is almost the only orderly thing in a very unorderly world. If you get three strikes, even the best lawyer in the world can't get you off.
If you can't outsmart people, outwork them.
Suffering is overrated. It doesn't teach you anything.
Though it is a team game by definition, it is actually a series of loosely connected individual efforts.
I don't break the rules. I merely test their elasticity.
