When you step into the batter's box, have nothing on your mind except baseball.
If you screw up and do something, don't lie about it; come clean.
If you have someone equal in ability to me I will beat him every time because I will try harder.
He (Eric Davis) gets power from his bat speed.....it's like he has cork in his arms.
No one ever asked what was my relationship with Bart Giamatti. We used to talk about baseball a lot as a player and a commissioner, just talk about the game, what could we do to help the game, where's the game going, he was pretty good.
Every time I step up to the plate, I expect to get a hit. If I don't expect to get a hit, I have no right to step into the batter's box in the first place.
