Pitching Is The Art Of Instilling Fear.

He's The Strangest Hitter In Baseball. Figure Him Out One Way And He'll Kill You Another.

I Became A Good Pitcher When I Stopped Trying To Make Them Miss The Ball And Started Trying To Make Them Hit It.

It's Better To Throw A Theoretically Poorer Pitch Whole-heartedly, Than To Throw The So-called Right Pitch With Feeling Of Doubt-doubt That's It's Right, Or Doubt That You Can Make It Behave Well At That Moment. You've Got To Feel Sure You're Doing The Right Thing-sure That You Want To Throw The Pitch You're Going To Throw.

I've Got A Lot Of Years To Live After Baseball And I Would Like To Live Them With The Complete Use Of My Body.

The Only Time I Really Try For A Strikeout Is When I'm In A Jam. If The Bases Are Loaded With None Out, For Example, Then I'll Go For A Strikeout. But Most Of The Time I Try To Throw To Spots. I Try To Get Them To Pop Up Or Ground Out. On A Strikeout I Might Have To Throw Five Or Six Pitches, Sometimes More If There Are Foul-offs. That Tires Me. So I Just Try To Get Outs. That's What Counts - Outs. You Win With Outs, Not Strikeouts.
