A Ball Bat Is A Wondrous Weapon.

I've Got To Be First. All The Time.

The Most Important Part Of A Player's Body Is Above His Shoulders.

Just Speed, Raw Speed, Blinding Speed, Too Much Speed.

The Longer I Live, The Longer I Realize That Batting Is More A Mental Matter Than It Is Physical. The Ability To Grasp The Bat, Swing At The Proper Time, Take A Proper Stance; All These Are Elemental. Batting Is Rather A Study In Psychology, A Sizing Up Of A Pitcher And Catcher And Observing Little Details That Are Of Immense Importance. It's Like The Study Of Crime, The Work Of A Detective As He Picks Up Clues.

Baseball Was One-hundred Percent Of My Life.
