Whether you want to or not, you do serve as a role model. People will always put more faith in baseball players than anyone else.

I wouldn't mind seeing someone erase my record of hitting into four triple plays.

He (Hoyt Wilhelm) had the best knuckleball you'd ever want to see. He knew where it was going when he threw it, but when he got two strikes on you, he'd break out one that even he didn't know where it was going.

Associate with those who help you believe in yourself.

Take time to thank everyone who has helped you along the way.

I'll play out the string and leave baseball without a tear. A man can't play games his whole life.

I could field as long as I can remember, but hitting has been a struggle all my life.
