A man has to have goals – for a day, for a lifetime...

Baseball is 50% from the neck up.

Think. Don’t just swing. Think about the pitcher, what he threw you last time up, his best pitch, who’s up next. Think.

I’ve found that you don’t need to wear a necktie if you can hit.

If I could run like Mantle I’d hit .400 every year!

By the time you know what to do, you’re too old to do it.

There goes the greatest hitter who ever lived.

There has always been a saying in baseball that you can’t make a hitter, but I think you can improve a hitter. More than you can improve a fielder. More mistakes are made hitting than in any other part of the game.

Hitting is fifty percent above the shoulders.

God gets you to the plate, but once you’re there you’re on your own.
