Baseball Is Only A Game, A Game

You Can Talk About Teamwork On A Baseball Team, But I'll Tell You, It Takes Teamwork When You Have 2,900 Men Stationed On The U.s.s. Alabama In The South Pacific.

I Just Reared Back And Let Them Go.

I Would Rather Beat The Yankees Regularly Than Pitch A No Hit Game.

My Father Kept Me Busy From Dawn To Dusk When I Was A Kid. When I Wasn't Pitching Hay, Hauling Corn Or Running A Tractor, I Was Heaving A Baseball Into His Mitt Behind The Barn... If All The Parents In The Country Followed His Rule, Juvenile Delinquency Would Be Cut In Half In A Year's Time.

I Was Only A Gun Captain On The Battleship Alabama For 34 Months. People Have Called Me A Hero For That, But I'll Tell You This - Heroes Don't Come Home. Survivors Come Home.
