Friendship... is not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything. A friend is the only person you will let into the house when you are Turning Out Drawers. A friend is one who knows you and loves you anyway... A kiss makes the heart young again and wipes out the years. Hit a tripwire of smell and memories explode all at once. A complex vision leaps out of the undergrowth. My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. Trying to sneak a fastball past Hank Aaron is like trying to sneak the sunrise past a rooster. Baseball players are smarter than football players. How often do you see a baseball team penalized for too many men on the field?
