Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
Yesterday's home runs don't win today's games.
I had only one superstition. I made sure to touch all the bases when I hit a home run.
Reading isn't good for a ballplayer. Not good for his eyes. If my eyes went bad even a little bit I couldn't hit home runs. So I gave up reading.
There is nothing better than walking out and hitting a home run.
Yes, I was in that game where George Brett hit that home run. Billy saw there was too much pine tar on the bat and he went to the umpire, the next thing we knew they were fighting about it.
I loved to make a great defensive play, I'd rather do that than hit a home run.
I'm mad at Hank Aaron for deciding to play one more season. I threw him his last home run and thought I'd be remembered forever. Now, I'll have to throw him another.
The home run took a while to sink in because all I could think of was, 'We beat the Yankees! We beat the Yankees.'
The key to hitting a lot of home runs as a player at Kauffman Stadium is that you'd better run into some on the road.
