Carl Yastrzemski Baseball Quotations

I think about baseball when I wake up in the morning. I think about it all day and I dream about it at night. The only time I don't think about it is when I'm playing it.

I was lucky enough to have the talent to play baseball. That's how I treated my career. I didn't think I was anybody special, anybody different.

When they knock you down, you not only have to get up, but you have to make it clear that you won't be knocked down a second time.

Anything less would not have been worthy of me. Anything more would not have been possible.

I remember I was a scared rookie, hitting .220 after the first three months of my baseball season, and doubting my ability.
