There was a time when rival teams used a shift against me. They would put the second baseman on the shortstop’s side of the bag, move the shortstop into the hole to his right, and have the third baseman hug the foul line. The idea was to build an infield wall against a known right-handed pull hitter Picture Quote #1

You’re not going to be a 1.000 hitter all the time. You’re going to be more wrong than right. You just have to correct your errors as quickly, as economically, as possible Picture Quote #1

The pitcher has to find out if the hitter is timid. And if the hitter is timid, he has to remind the hitter he's timid 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

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 good player who is a great putter is a match for any golfer. A great hitter who cannot putt is a match for no one Picture Quote #1

When I stood up there as a pinch hitter, I honestly believed I was the best hitter in the game. That’s the only attitude to have Picture Quote #1

My mother used to pitch to me and my father would shag balls. If I hit one up the middle close to my mother, I’d have some extra chores to do. My mother was instrumental in making me a pull hitter Picture Quote #1

He’s the strangest hitter in baseball. Figure him out one way and he’ll kill you another Picture Quote #1

When the ball is over the middle of the plate, the batter is hitting it with the sweet part of the bat. When it’s inside, he’s hitting it with the part of the bat from the handle to the trademark. When it’s outside, he’s hitting it with the end of the bat. You’ve got to keep the ball away from the sweet part of the bat. To do that, the pitcher has to move the hitter off the plate Picture Quote #1

When you make a bad pitch and the hitter puts it out of the park and you cost your team the game, it’s a real test of your maturity to be able to stand in front of your locker fifteen minutes later and admit it to the world. How many people in other professions would be willing to have their job performances evaluated that way, in front of millions, every afternoon at five o’clock Picture Quote #1

I used to think that if there was reincarnation, I wanted to come back as the president or the pope or as a.400 baseball hitter. But now I would like to come back as the bond market. You can intimidate everybody Picture Quote #1
