Nobody talked about my defense or that I used to steal bases, too.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Stealing bases is just something I like to do. I figure if I can hit home runs and steal bases, I'd be different than everybody else.
Hitters never showed me up, as hard as I threw. And I was pretty mean out on the mound.
I sort of missed one big thing, to touch first base. I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history.
I've never played, on the field, any other position besides quarterback. Never been on a special team. Never been on defense.
If you want to steal a base, steal a base. Don't make the hitter swing at a bad pitch trying to protect the runner.
I pitched and I played the outfield.
I thought I was a pretty good shortstop, but I also wanted to play in the major leagues.
We had to play both ways on the field, so I was offensive center and defensive end.
I wasn't ever good enough to be on the baseball team and that sort of stuff.
People say I stole a lot of bases. I stole the bases for a reason. I crossed the plate.
