Hitting the ball was easy. Running around the bases was the tough part.

A lot of people wrote that Roger (Maris) and I didn't like each other and that we didn't get along. Nothing could be further from the truth.

In 1960 when Pittsburgh beat us in the World Series, we outscored them 55-27. It was the only time I think the better team lost. I was so disappointed I cried on the plane ride home.

If the World Series was on the line and I could pick one pitcher to pitch the game, I'd choose Whitey Ford every time.

He who has the fastest golf cart never has a bad lie.

It looked like Roy Rogers rode through on Trigger, and Trigger kicked the guy in the face.

It was the single greatest feat I ever saw.
