I think that to fully appreciate baseball, it helps to have been born in the U.S.
Baseball0That's what I love about baseball, that it gives the opportunity for every single guy to develop and play the game. There's not a rule that you have to be 6 foot or you have to be real strong to play baseball or to become a good player.
Baseball0You don't realize how easy this game is until you get up in that broadcasting booth.
Baseball0After I hit a home run I had a habit of running the bases with my head down. I figured the pitcher already felt bad enough without me showing him up rounding the bases.
Baseball0There are three things you can do in a baseball game. You can win, or you can lose, or it can rain.
Baseball0A baseball swing is a very finely tuned instrument. It is repetition, and more repetition, then a little more after that.
Baseball0I don't want to play golf. When I hit a ball, I want someone else to go chase it.
Baseball0People 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.
Baseball0Beast Mode doesn't make excuses. It doesn't complain. Whatever you're doing, go out there and get it done. Keep pushing. If I have a bad game, I think about what I have to do to return to form. Figure it out, go to sleep, and wake up a new man.
Ambition, Motivation, Baseball0There are three types of baseball players: Those who make it happen, those who watch it happen and those who wonder what happens.
Baseball0Baseball is like driving, it's the one who gets home safely that counts.
Baseball0Love is the most important thing in the world, but baseball is pretty good, too.
Baseball0I think one of the most difficult things for anyone who's played baseball is to accept the fact that maybe the players today are playing just as well as ever.
