The Only Book I Ever Read Cover

Doctors Tell Me I Have The Body Of A Thirty Year Old. I Know I Have The Brain Of A Fifteen Year Old. If You've Got Both, You Can Play Baseball.

I'm No Different From Anybody Else With Two Arms, Two Legs, And Forty-two Hundred Hits.

I Owe Baseball. Baseball Don't Owe Me A Damn Thing.

Sliding Headfirst Is The Safest Way To Get To The Next Base, I Think, And The Fastest. You Don't Lose Your Momentum, And There's One More Important Reason I Slide Headfirst, It Gets My Picture In The Paper.

I'd Be Willing To Bet You, If I Was A Betting Man, That I Have Never Bet On Baseball.
