Baseball Is Only A Game, A Game

I Went On Inactive Duty In August 1945, And Since I Had Stayed In Such Good Shape And Had Played Ball On Military Teams, I Was Ready To Start For The Indians Just Two Days Later, Against The Tigers.

I Would Rather Beat The Yankees Regularly Than Pitch A No Hit Game.

Every Day Is A New Opportunity. You Can Build On Yesterday's Success Or Put Its Failures Behind And Start Over Again. That's The Way Life Is, With A New Game Every Day, And That's The Way Baseball Is.

You Can Talk About Teamwork On A Baseball Team, But I'll Tell You, It Takes Teamwork When You Have 2,900 Men Stationed On The U.s.s. Alabama In The South Pacific.

I'm No Hero. Heroes Don't Come Back. Survivors Return Home. Heroes Never Come Home. If Anyone Thinks I'm A Hero, I'm Not.
