Keep your head on the ball. You've got to hit it first, then look where it goes. People get in trouble when they look for where the ball's going, and they haven't even hit it yet.

I have always passed the ball and worked on that part of my game.

Where the ball went was up to heaven. Sometimes I threw the ball clean up into the stands.

I throw the ball ninety-two miles an hour, but they hit it back just as hard.

I could always hit the ball really far, but you don't need to be strong to do that.

Joe Torre would tell you to make sure you can hit the ball on the outside part of the plate.

I've tried my very best to keep all the balls in the air and be home.

See the ball; hit the ball.

I'm aware that if the ball is thrown in my direction, I'm expected to catch it because the media is going to be on my back.

I started in for the ball but I just couldn't get it. I should have caught it because I was used to catching everything on the sandlots. But they hit the ball a lot harder in the major leagues and I just couldn't reach the ball this time.
