A Ball Player Has To Be Kept

Motivation Is Something Nobody Else Can Give You. Others Can Help Motivate You, But Basically It Must Come From You And It Must Be A Constant Desire To Do Your Very Best At All Times And Under Any Circumstances.

A Ball Player Has To Be Kept Hungry To Become A Big Leaguer. That's Why No Boy From A Rich Family Has Ever Made The Big Leagues.

After I Got That Hit Off Satchel (paige), I Knew I Was Ready For The Big Leagues.

I Feel Like I Have Reached The Stage Where I Can No Longer Produce For My Club, My Manager, And My Teammates. I Had A Poor Year, But Even If I Had Hit .350, This Would Have Been My Last Year. I Was Full Of Aches An Pains And It Had Become A Chore For Me To Play. When Baseball Is No Longer Fun, It's No Longer A Game.

Baseball Didn't Really Get Into My Blood Until I Knocked Off That Hitting Streak. Getting A Daily Hit Became More Important To Me Than Eating, Drinking Or Sleeping.
