I had a job to do, and I did it all these years to the best of my ability. That's what I'd like to leave behind as I finish my final game in Toronto.

I look on life as a joyous adventure.

If I walked back into the booth in the year 2025, I don't think it would have changed much. I think baseball would be played and managed pretty much the same as it is today. It's a great survivor.

I love what I do. If I had my time over again, I'd probably do it for nothing.

Baseball is a rookie, his experience no bigger than the lump in his throat as he begins fulfillment of his dream.

I'd like to be remembered as someone who showed up for the job. I consider myself a worker.

I think once you start as an announcer, you have to decide what kind of approach you're going to have. I decided very early that I was going to be a reporter, that I would not cheer for the team. I don't denigrate people who do it. It's fine. I think you just have to fit whatever kind of personality you have, and I think my nature was to be more down the middle and that's the way I conducted the broadcasts.
