Dusty Baker Earned Quotations

He's earned it. It couldn't happen to a finer young man. The whole city of Sacramento is probably proud of him.

He means a lot to us and a lot to the city and the organization. He's earned it, and it couldn't have happened to a finer guy.

You know how I feel about the guy -- I love the guy. I would've loved to have played with him, and behind him. I've enjoyed watching him here with us. He's one of the few guys I've had who has earned the right -- and you know he's not going to abuse the right -- to call his own shots. This guy is a pro. You don't know he's around. He never boasts or brags.

We didn't just give him the job. He earned it.
