You just can’t beat the person who never gives up.
Never let the fear of striking out get in your way.
Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
The only real game, I think, in the world is baseball.
The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don’t play together, the club won’t be worth a dime.
Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the world.
I hear the cheers when they roared and the jeers when they echoed.
Yesterday’s home runs don’t win today’s games.
How to hit home runs: I swing as hard as I can, and I try to swing right through the ball… The harder you grip the bat, the more you can swing it through the ball, and the farther the ball will go. I swing big, with everything I’ve got.
I have just one superstition. Whenever I hit a home run, I make certain I touch all four bases.
