Simple pleasures were all the pleasures that I knew as a child.

Trying to hit Sandy Koufax was like trying to drink coffee with a fork.

I was always a self-proclaimed poor slider.

I always said that when it was time to retire, I would know it, and I would just tip my hat to the crowds.

Playing baseball was my dream, and no amount of money could sway my opinion.

I gave out stars whenever an appropriate situation presented itself.

Throwing a knuckleball for a strike is like throwing a butterfly with hiccups across the street into your neighbor's mailbox.
