Just two words: a masterpiece.

I'm proud to have been a Yankee. But I have found more happiness and contentment since I came back home to San Francisco than any man has a right to deserve. This is the friendliest city in the world.

If I were sitting down with George Steinbrenner (to discuss a salary) and based on what Dave Winfield got for his statistics, I'd have to say, 'George, you and I are about to become partners.'

It's got to be better than rooming with Joe Page.

I'm a ballplayer, not an actor.

Baseball didn't really get into my blood until I knocked off that hitting streak. Getting a daily hit became more important to me than eating, drinking or sleeping.

In that case Mr. Barrow, Mr. Gehrig is a very underpaid ballplayer.
