Any ballplayer that don`t sign autographs for little kids ain`t an American. He`s a communist.
To be a good hitter you`ve got to do one thing - get a good ball to hit.
I don`t want to play golf. When I hit a ball, I want someone else to go chase it.
It don`t make no difference where I go or what happens, so long as I can play the full nine.
I always tried to hit the ball back through the box because that is the largest unprotected area.
People ask me what I do in winter when there`s no baseball. I`ll tell you what I do. I stare out the window and wait for spring.
I`ve never been a yes man.
I don`t like to sound egotistical, but every time I stepped up to the plate with a bat in my hands, I couldn`t help but feel sorry for the pitcher.
Now the advantage is all with the hitters.
