You aren't going to stick around long with just two pitches

When I started finishing games and coming off the field shaking hands, it was a beautiful thing. I mean, you start seeing that you're an important part of the team.

Then you figure out that if you don't throw it as hard as you can, you can put it where you want. It's more important where you put it

When I first came up, the bullpen was pretty much where they put the guys who couldn't start.

It took a great deal of acceptance to come to terms with being an alcoholic, but the acceptance was key to my sobriety. If I had not gained acceptance at that time in my life, I would not be standing here today.

I was in good control of my body, and I kept my head still.

I was a starter and did some good things there, and then I got a chance to prove myself as a closer. Because of that opportunity, I was blessed with the honor of being elected to the Hall of Fame.
