I ain't ever had a job, I just always played baseball.

I don't generally like running. I believe in training by rising gently up and down from the bench.
|
I never rush myself. See, they can't start the game without me.
|
I never threw an illegal pitch. The trouble is, once in a while I toss one that ain't never been seen by this generation.
|
I use my single windup, my double windup, my triple windup, my hesitation windup, my no windup. I also use my step-n-pitch-it, my submariner, my sidearmer, and my bat dodger. Man's got to do what he's got to do.

My pitching philosophy is simple - keep the ball way from the bat.

There never was a man on Earth who pitched as much as me. But the more I pitched, the stronger my arm would get.
|
When a batter swings and I see his knees move, I can tell just what his weaknesses are then I just put the ball where I know he can't hit it.
|
Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching.
