If You're In The Minor Leagues, You

I Played It Right Because That's What You're Supposed To Do – Play It Right And With Respect.

If You're In The Minor Leagues, You Want To Get To The Majors.

I Was Taught You Never, Ever Disrespect Your Opponent Or Your Teammates Or Your Organization Or Your Manager, And Never, Ever Your Uniform.

At My Growing Years Of 18 To 21 Years Old In The Minor Leagues, I Dreamed Of Being A Philadelphia Phillie.

I Never Forgot The Four Years I Spent With The Phillies, My September Call-ups And My Big League Spring Trainings. I Never Forgot That.
