You've got to be ready for the fastball.

I've found in life the more you practice, the better you get. If you want something enough and work hard to get it, your chances of success are greater.

The hardest thing to do in baseball is to hit a round baseball with a round bat, squarely.

I've found that you don't need to wear a necktie if you can hit.

There's only one way to become a hitter. Go up to the plate and get mad. Get mad at yourself and mad at the pitcher.

I hope somebody hits .400 soon. Then people can start pestering that guy with questions about the last guy to hit .400.

You have to hit the fastball to play in the big leagues.
