I was acting when I was playing baseball.

I did stand-up, weird and ignorant stuff about my career - anything for a laugh.

When I came up to bat with three men on and two outs in the ninth, I looked in the other team's dugout and they were already in street clothes.

I knew when my career was over. In 1965 my baseball card came out with no picture.

I think my top salary was maybe in 1966. I made $17,000 and 11 of that came from selling other players' equipment.

I had a great shoe contract and glove contract with a company who paid me a lot of money never to be seen using their stuff.

I remember one time I'm batting against the Dodgers in Milwaukee. They lead, 2 - 1, it's the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, two out and the pitcher has a full count on me. I look over to the Dodger dugout and they're all in street clothes.
