Zitat des Tages von Rod Carew:
Hitting is an art, but not an exact science.
Three thousand hits is something that should stand for itself.
When I was 11, I spent eight months in the hospital with rheumatic fever and almost died.
There is a special sensation in getting good wood on the ball and driving a double down the left-field line as the crowd in the ballpark rises to its feet and cheers. But, I also remember how much fun I had as a skinny barefoot kid hitting a tennis ball with a broomstick on a quiet, dusty street in Panama.
I get a kick out of watching a team defense me. A player moves two steps in one direction and I hit it two steps the other way. It goes right by his glove and I laugh.
