I Don't Mean To Be Bashful, But

I'm A Very Lucky Guy. I Had So Many People Help Me Over The Years That I Never Had Many Problems. If I Had A Problem, I Could Sit Down With Someone And They Would Explain The Problem To Me, And The Problem Become Like A Baseball Game

I Always Enjoyed Playing Ball, And It Didn't Matter To Me Whether I Played With White Kids Or Black. I Never Understood Why An Issue Was Made Of Who I Played With, And I Never Felt Comfortable, When I Grew Up, Telling Other People How To Act

That's How Easy Baseball Was For Me. I'm Not Trying To Brag Or Anything, But I Had The Knowledge Before I Became A Professional Baseball Player To Do All These Things And Know What Each Guy Would Hit.

I Don't Rate Them, I Just Hit Them.

I Would Try And Help Everybody, Because The Game Was So Easy For Me. It Was Just Like Walking In The Park.
