Maintaining concentration depends on what I call tunnel vision; nothing else in the world exists but the catcher's target, the hitter and my perfect delivery.
Put the right pitching mechanics together with good health, and there's nothing surprising about lasting a long time.
I can't imagine Joe DiMaggio was a better all-around player than Dale Murphy.
I never found a place where I wanted to live more than Alvin (Texas).
Enjoying success requires the ability to adapt.
My ability to throw a baseball was a gift. It was a God-given gift. And I am truly appreciative of that gift.
