If there was ever a man born to be a hitter it was me Picture Quote #1

The designated hitter rule is like letting someone else take Wilt Chamberlain's free throws Picture Quote #1

I was such a dangerous hitter I even got intentional walks during batting practice Picture Quote #1

What makes a good pinch hitter? I wish the hell I knew Picture Quote #1

A good hitter has timing. A good pitcher upsets timing Picture Quote #1

A pitcher has to look at the hitter as his mortal enemy Picture Quote #1

It helps if the hitter thinks you’re a little crazy Picture Quote #1

I’m a different hitter than Chipper Jones. He goes up looking for certain pitches to hit. I go up there looking for something over the plate and try to hit it hard Picture Quote #1

I’m always amazed when a pitcher becomes angry at a hitter for hitting a home run off him. When I strike out, I don’t get angry at the pitcher, I get angry at myself. I would think that if a pitcher threw up a home run ball, he should be angry at himself Picture Quote #1

That’s one of the great oddities of baseball: Success is relative. A hitter who fails 70 percent of the time at the plate is a potential member of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, and many World Championship teams lose more than 70 games during their title-winning seasons Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I’m a home run hitter. Most of my home runs are line drives. If I hit it, thanks God. But it’s not the kind of thing that I think about. I just go out there and try to have a better season than I had before. Home runs are not in my mind Picture Quote #1

You should have seen Willie Wells play shortstop: as good as Ozzie Smith and a better hitter. How I wish people could have seen Ray Dandridge play third base, as good as Brooks Robinson and Craig Nettles and all of those. He was bowlegged; a train might go through there, but not a baseball Picture Quote #1

I think the thing I’m most excited about is the fact that I was able to, for the most part, change pitchers’ mindsets about what kind of hitter I am Picture Quote #1

There’s only one way to become a hitter. Go up to the plate and get mad. Get mad at yourself and mad at the pitcher Picture Quote #1

A lot of people just thought I’d be a .260 hitter all my life. I was kind of like, ‘Let me make some adjustments and let me learn the game a little bit.’ Picture Quote #1

I was a contact hitter my whole career but I learned how to handle the ball inside. And Ted Williams played a big part in that. He gave me the advice on how to handle inside pitches Picture Quote #1

What makes a good leadoff hitter? Deion Sanders had speed, but he wasn’t the ideal leadoff hitter. What was his on-base percentage? The criteria shouldn’t be speed, it should be getting on base Picture Quote #1

I’ve been streaky throughout my career, but I’ve been trying to become a more consistent hitter Picture Quote #1

The hitter can never be the judge. Only the receiver of the blow can tell you how hard it was, whether it would kill a man or make a baby just yawn Picture Quote #1

I’m probably an average hitter, at least, and if you talk to my peers, they will tell you that I hit the ball plenty far enough Picture Quote #1

A man has to have goals - for a day, for a lifetime - and that was mine, to have people say, ‘There goes Ted Williams, the greatest hitter who ever lived.’ Picture Quote #1

A successful pitcher keeps the leadoff hitter from reaching first base and puts the first pitch over for a strike - the two most important rules of pitching Picture Quote #1

Traditionally, baseball punishes preening. In a society increasingly tolerant of exhibitionism, it is splendid when a hitter is knocked down because in his last at bat he lingered at the plate to admire his home run Picture Quote #1
