I had an addiction to play baseball.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was a baseball fan myself, I wanted to play baseball.
I wanted to play baseball ever since I was 5 years old.
It was all I lived for, to play baseball.
I wanted to play baseball!
Always wanted to be a Major League player. Loved baseball. Followed it. Loved to play. Plus, I could always hit.
I was born to play baseball.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be a baseball player.
I always thought that there was going to be life after baseball, and so I designed that in my life I would have other interests after baseball that I would be able to step into. And I didn't realize the grip that baseball had on me and on my family.
I don't feel I could've played major league baseball.
Every day I went to the ballpark in Yankee Stadium as well as on the road people were on my back. The last six years in the American League were mental hell for me. I was drained of all my desire to play baseball.
