I didn't teach you that. Catch the ball with your glove.

What you are thinking, what shape your mind is in, is what makes the biggest difference of all.

I would try and help everybody, because the game was so easy for me. It was just like walking in the park.

I don't compare 'em, I just catch 'em.

I was a baseball player, I taught baseball, and all of a sudden I was in the business world. Now I used the baseball world to talk about their product. Not too much, just enough to keep going. Just be yourself and you'll never have a problem. That's what I did.

That's how easy baseball was for me. I'm not trying to brag or anything, but I had the knowledge before I became a professional baseball player to do all these things and know what each guy would hit.

Baseball is a game, yes. It is also a business. But what is most truly is is disguised combat. For all its gentility, its almost leisurely pace, baseball is violence under wraps.
