Quote

I was a baseball fan myself, I wanted to play baseball.

I always wanted to be a major-league baseball player.

Always wanted to be a Major League player. Loved baseball. Followed it. Loved to play. Plus, I could always hit.

I enjoy baseball more than anything and would like to be involved with it forever, but the reality is your survival is determined by how well you compete, not by your fondness for the game.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a baseball player.

I was born to play baseball.

Baseball is not what I love. It's my job.

I love baseball. I love watching baseball. As a broadcaster, I get to watch the best 700 players put on the uniform year after year. That, to me, is exciting.

I just love baseball; it's one of my favorite sports.

I love what I do. I'm appreciative and I'm still competitive. I still love baseball, but it doesn't consume me. If I can't do it anymore, then I go home and do something else. It's not the end of the world. It's just the end of your career.
