You gotta be careful with your body. Your body is like a bar of soap. The more you use it, the more it wears down.
St. Louis is baseball all american style. Not like Philly, not like New York, not like anywhere else. In St. Louis the fans care about the game. Here they talk strategy, the hit-and-run, the squeeze play, the defensive alignment; the fans didn't care about off-field controversies.
If a horse won't eat it, I don't want to play on it.
I'll play first, third, left. I'll play anywhere - except Philadelphia.
I wish they'd shut the gates, and let us play ball with no press and no fans.
I once loved this game. But after being traded four times, I realized that it's nothing but a business. I treat my horses better than the owners treat us. It's a shame they've destroyed my love for the game.
