My first job after my retirement from baseball was as a narrator for the Eastman Philharmonica.

I've always been a slave to my heart.

I flailed my arm in a throwing motion before I could even walk.

To be successful, one must take chances.

Baseball for me was instinctive, born within me, given to me as a gift from God.

Be honest and work hard to get what you want. Don't take shortcuts; you only cheat yourself in the long run. Success is not measured by money or fame, but by how you feel about your own goals and accomplishments and the time and effort you put into them.

I'm a God-fearing man who worships with my heart and with my life.
