There are three types of baseball players: Those who make it happen, those who watch it happen and those who wonder what happens.

Everywhere I go, I feel strange.

I didn't even graduate from high school. I've never told anybody that before. I got my degree later, when I was in the army.

I've always called L.A. 'the world capital of sport.'

The worst team in baseball's history won only 55 games. The best team ever won 110 out of 160, so you're virtually guaranteed to win 1/3 of the time and lose 1/3 of the time. The difference is the 1/3 in the middle. You don't know what bucket the game you're playing falls into, so if you're smart, you'll fight like everything for all of them.

Ernie Banks was a great great player and when he no longer could play, he became a great ambassador for the game. He represented the game with the highest of class and dignity. Everybody loved Ernie Banks. He enjoyed baseball, life and people. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. We have truly lost a baseball giant.

I love doubleheaders. That way I get to keep my uniform on longer.
