The trouble is not that players have sex the night before a game. It's that they stay out all night looking for it.

I don't go to bed every night worried about getting back into baseball.

The great trouble with baseball today is that most of the players are in the game for the money and that's it, not for the love of it, the excitement of it, the thrill of it.

Baseball is about talent, hard work, and strategy. But at the deepest level, it's about love, integrity, and respect.

You can't get real happy or real depressed when you play baseball. Baseball is a great sport in that it offers a player a lot of opportunities for atonement.

I really love the togetherness in baseball. That's a real true love.

Baseball is like driving, it's the one who gets home safely that counts.

As women professional athletes, you have to have respect for every player and individual. Beyond that, it doesn't matter what your interests are. People can have their own lives.

When it comes to women, there has been a tendency to define women in sports in the context of their relationships - they watch games because their husbands watch. They're interested because their kids play a sport. They buy tickets to a sporting event because it's a way to spend time with family.
