Among many U. S. wine consumers, California holds a strong position.

I bet on the game of baseball and I bet on my team, even the mistakes I made, I have to take a different look at someone betting against their own team... that's throwing the game.

Creating success is tough. But keeping it is tougher. You have to keep producing, you can't ever stop.

I told him (Pete Rose, Jr.) who to watch. I said if you want to be a catcher, watch Johnny Bench. If you want to be a right-handed power hitter, watch Mike Schmidt. If you just want to be a hitter, watch me.

Baseball is an individual game, but it should never be a personal game.

When I get the record, all it will make me is the player with the most hits. I'm also the player with the most at bats and the most outs. I never said I was a greater player than (Ty) Cobb.

Somebody's gotta win and somebody's gotta lose and I believe in letting the other guy lose.
