Making The Majors Is Not As Hard

Maybe The Day Will Come When I Can Sit Back And Be Content....but Until That Day Comes, I Intend To Stay In The Batter's Box - I Don't Let The Big Guys Push Me Out Of There Anymore - And Keep Hammering Away.

I Think About How A Guy Mentally Prepared Himself To Do Battle, To Go Out And Face The Pitcher. I Think So Many Hitters Do Not Know How To Get Themselves Prepared To Play Or Hit Against A Pitcher. You Have To Mentally Be Prepared To Hit Against All Pitchers.

Last Year, I Was Sort Of A Kid And I Was A Little Scared, I Ain't Scared Any More.

I Never Smile When I Have A Bat In My Hands. That's When You've Got To Be Serious. When I Get Out On The Field, Nothing's A Joke To Me. I Don't Feel Like I Should Walk Around With A Smile On My Face.

I Never Doubted My Ability, But When You Hear All Your Life You're Inferior, It Makes You Wonder If The Other Guys Have Something You've Never Seen Before. If They Do, I'm Still Looking For It.
