Wheaties was the big sponsor in those days (1940s). They sponsored almost all the baseball games in the majors and the minors. That was a lot of Wheaties. I think there were twenty-four boxes in a case and some of these guys were hitting twenty-five and thirty home runs a season. We had a dog in those days named Blue Grass and the players used to give us their Wheaties for him. Blue Grass loved Wheaties and so did I.

With the Giants I broadcast the debut of Hall of Famer Willie Mays.

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

Needless to say, I have more no-hitters than Nolan Ryan.

I just have faith. It's just there. It's not any big deal.

The good Lord has blessed me with a great journey.

I look on life as a joyous adventure.
