I wasn't out drinking and abusing my body. I simply loved to go out and dance.

A World Series trophy is a wonderful thing to behold.

Love soothes wounds, while hatred and violence deepen them.

I never search for a reason why - I have faith in the Lord's purpose.

They give you a round bat and they throw you a round ball. And they tell you to hit it square.

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

I owe a large part of my success to Joe Brown, who helped me both as a player and a person.
