If I send the ball home, I know what will happen to it. My twin brothers will take it out on the lot, like any 20-cent rocket.
Mickey MantleDuring my 18 years I came to bat almost 10,000 times. I struck out about 1,700 times and walked maybe 1,800 times. You figure a ballplayer will average about 500 at-bats a season. That means I played 7 years without ever hitting the ball.
