Pitch Within Yourself.

The Good Rising Fastball Is The Best Pitch In Baseball.

Do You Think It's Easy To Just Walk Up To Joe Dimaggio And Start Up A Conversation? I've Been Around Him At Old-timers' Games, And Believe Me, He's Someone Special. It's Not Easy To Walk Over And Say, 'how Ya Doin', Joe, Whaddya Say?' You Really Feel As Though This Is The One Old-timer You Have To Call Mister.

These Kids Today, They Want To Be Men, They Want To Be Foxhole Guys, But They’re Not Being Allowed To Do That. Imagine If These Computer Geeks Who Are Running Baseball Now Were Allowed To Run A War? They’d Be Telling Our Soldiers: ‘that’s Enough. You’ve Fired Too Many Bullets From Your Rifle This Week!’

Some Pitchers Want To Be Known As The Fastest Throwers That Ever Lived. Some Want To Win 30 Games In One Season. Some Want To Pitch A No-hitter. All I Want To Do Is The Best I Can, Day After Day. In Other Words, I Want To Prove I Am The Best.

A Good Professional Athlete Must Have The Love Of A Little Boy. And The Good Players Feel The Kind Of Love For The Game That They Did When They Were Little Leaguers.
