Baseball Was One-hundred Percent Of My Life.

When I Came To Detroit I Was Just A Mild-mannered Sunday-school Boy.

I Have Observed That Baseball Is Not Unlike War, And When You Get Right Down To It, We Batters Are The Heavy Artillery.

The Longer I Live, The Longer I Realize That Batting Is More A Mental Matter Than It Is Physical. The Ability To Grasp The Bat, Swing At The Proper Time, Take A Proper Stance; All These Are Elemental. Batting Is Rather A Study In Psychology, A Sizing Up Of A Pitcher And Catcher And Observing Little Details That Are Of Immense Importance. It's Like The Study Of Crime, The Work Of A Detective As He Picks Up Clues.

I'm Coming Down On The Next Pitch, Krauthead.

The Way Those Clubs Shift Against Ted Williams, I Can't Understand How He Can Be So Stupid Not To Accept The Challenge To Him And Hit To Left Field.
