I played with Hank Aaron. Stuff started to happen ? hate letters, fans in the stands. |
I read something a few years back that said there were a few black players who didn't even know who Jackie Robinson was, |
I really liked playing in Atlanta. It was great for me. |
I said last year that our guys would be a year older. Well, they'll be another year older next season. And we have all those day games. |
I saw balls that were hit where he had to run and stop. I didn't see much favoring in the knee. He's so much better than he was in spring training. That was a real workout. |
I saw him hit 10 home runs in 40 at bats one spring training. If he's in spring training mode, watch out. |
I saw it on the scoreboard. I didn't have a lot of time to think about it because I was managing the last two innings. Tomorrow is the big day to make plans. He's been practicing and running around. That's good enough for me, of course. |
I saw it on the scoreboard. I haven't had time to think about it. (Today) is a big day to make plans. |
I see a guy with a quick bat. I don't see the end here. I compare the guy with Hank Aaron, who could hit a fastball to the end. |
I think everybody wants to see him. I haven't seen him since October, but we've talked on the phone. There's no urgency to talk except for the normal welcoming. There's a lot of time to discuss things. |
I think he wanted to pass the Babe. |
I think he's throwing with confidence and feels comfortable on the mound. And the way he pitches [quickly] you want to play defense behind him. |
I think we hit about four balls hard today, or was it three? |
I thought about it when I saw that. Maybe other people will be called. I guess anybody who they believed to know something, they want to hear (those) people talk. |
I thought the guy was out. Saw a strike on the corner that was not ruled a strike. |
