I'm a guy who just wanted to see his name in the lineup everyday. To me, baseball was a passion to the point of obsession.

I'll play out the string and leave baseball without a tear. A man can't play games his whole life.

It may be that you are settled in another place it may be that you are happy but the one who took your heart wields final power.

The point of writing my name to you is that I see who you are, you see who I am... and that's what it's about.

Fifty years from now I'll be just three inches of type in a record book.

I don't see the point in working just to be working.
