By the time you know what to do, you're too old to do it.

Think. Don't just swing. Think about the pitcher, what he threw you last time up, his best pitch, who's up next. Think.

There goes the greatest hitter who ever lived

The most fun I ever had in my life was hittin' a baseball. And the best sound I ever heard in my life was a ball hit with a bat. Powww!

Hitting is the most important part of the game. It is where the big money is, where much of the status is, and the fan interest.

If there was ever a man born to be a hitter it was me.

If I could run like Mantle I'd hit .400 every year!
