I hated to bat against Drysdale. After he hit you he'd come around, look at the bruise on your arm and say, 'Do you want me to sign it?'

Sometimes I think if I had the same body and the same natural ability and someone else's brain, who knows how good a player I might have been.

Of course, I didn't tell you about all the times I said I was going to hit one and it didn't happen.

I think the best all-round baseball player ever was Joe DiMaggio.

Those people don't know how tough that really was.

We know you can bunt, Mick. You're not down here to bunt. You're here to get some hits and get your swing back.

He said to play louder. He can't hear you.
