Hey Mantle, you win. You're the worst.

I expected him to say, 'Hang in there' or something like that. It took me an hour to talk him into giving me another chance!

Billy (Martin) was a great one for jokes. He liked to play a joke more than anyone I ever knew.

Ralph (Houk) brought out the best in everybody, and that included me. I consider myself lucky to have played for him.

My dad taught me to switch-hit. He and my grandfather, who was left-handed, pitched to me every day after school in the back yard. I batted lefty against my dad and righty against my granddad.

He who have the fastest cart never have to play a bad lie.

I can't play any more. I can't hit the ball when I need to. I can't steal second when I need to. I can't go from first to third when I need to. I can't score from second when I need to. I have to quit.
