Baseball is a game, yes. It is also a business.

Defense to me is the key to playing baseball.

Youngsters of Little League can survive undercoaching a lot better than overcoaching.

What's tough is being good every day.

I played with the Birmingham Black Barons. I was making 500 at 14. That was a lot of money in those days.

In order to excel, you must be completely dedicated.

I think I was the best baseball player I ever saw.
