Unless you have bad times, you can't appreciate the good times.

If a club is winning, you never pay attention to a guy who's 0-for-10. If a club is losing, all of a sudden you'll find that he's the main reason why you're losing, which is absurd for me.

I've been very, very fortunate. I never had to work for a living.

The League is very well when sparrows shout, but no good at all when eagles fall out.

I am convinced that the reason so many fans leave Dodger Stadium after the seventh inning is that they become bored.

I hate the bad rap that people give my parents. Because they are just parents, really, at the end of the day trying to stand up for their daughter and themselves.
