If he can hit, he can hit. I don't care if he came from Class Z league.

The fan is the one who suffers. He cheers a guy to a .350 season then watches that player sign with another team. When you destroy fan loyalties, you destroy everything.

No. 1, these guys out here on this field. They keep my energy level up. They try hard, they don't complain about things - and I'd just like to be with them when things are good, and hopefully we can win a pennant together.

No, I don't think my presence will cause an increase in black attendance at Cleveland.

If the guys on the bench were as good as the guys you have out there, they'd be out there in first place.

I just didn't have anything to say, so I said nothing.

At least when it's in French, I won't know what the heck they're saying.

All in all, I wouldn't call it a bad outing. It was a short outing.

The way we're going... if I called up another pitcher, he'd just hang up the phone on me.

I always tried to do the best. I knew I couldn't always be the best, but I tried to be.

Pitchers did me a favor when they knocked me down. It made me more determined. I wouldn't let that pitcher get me out. They say you can't hit if you're on your back, but I didn't hit on my back. I got up.

People come out to see the players. When do you see a manager anyway? When he's out on the field arguing with the umpires, making a fool of himself and you know you can't win, and when he brings out the line-up card.
