I owe the public just one thing - a good performance.

When I was playing I never wished I was doing anything else. I think being a professional athlete is the finest thing a man can do.

A great catch is like watching girls go by. The last one you see is always the prettiest.

Rules or no rules, pitchers are going to throw spitters. It's a matter of survival.

Believe me, I would much rather get three outs on three pitches than three outs on nine pitches, because that's going to make me that much stronger at the end of the game. My pitching philosophy is simpe. I believe in getting the ball over the plate and not walking a lot of men.
