I Don't Think I Could Have Dreamt

I Told Myself That If I Ever Make It To The Big Leagues That I Would Be The One To Appreciate The Fans. Take A Little Time Out To Sign Autographs And Shake Their Hands And Say Hello To Them.

In Baseball You Train The Whole Body, Except For The Hip And Eyes.

When I Was A Little-leaguer, I Was Sort Of Famous For Stealing Bases - And It Started Only Because My Mom Wanted To Be Sure Where I Was In The Afternoons. Mom Always Used To Say, "if You Don't Come Home Dirty, You Didn't Play A Baseball Game." So I Always Tried To Get In A Situation Where I Had To Slide So That I Could Go Home Dirty.

Somehow, I've Been Blessed To Be Able To Have The Young Spirit Inside - Not Feel Like Every Year I Get A Year Older. I Feel Like Every Year I Get A Year Younger. I Don't Wake Up In The Morning With Aches And Pains.

It's Always Exciting That You Can Rub Elbows With Some Of The Greatest Players Who Have Ever Played The Game, And Just Being Around The "family" Again From Baseball.
