I don't want to play golf. When I hit a ball, I want someone else to go chase it.
Baseball is my life, the only thing I know and can talk about. My only interest.
To be a good hitter you've got to do one thing - get a good ball to hit.
A great hitter isn't born, he's made. He's made out of practice, fault correction, and confidence.
The home run became glorified with Babe Ruth. Starting with him, batters have been thinking in terms of how far they could hit the ball, not how often.
When I was in the batter's box, I felt sorry for the pitcher.
