My career spanned the era when relievers started to become more important

As long as I could pitch a little, no one cared that I was getting drunk.

If you rush in and out of the clubhouse, you rush in and out of baseball.

Well, you know, I left Cuba as a kid when I was 6 years old back in 1971.

I make stupid errors because I don't concentrate. I let things bother me.

It's (Phil Niekro's knuckleball) like watching Mario Andretti park a car.

Darryl Strawberry has been voted to the Hall of Fame five years in a row.

Anyone who consistently makes you feel bad is not helping you get better.

If there was any magic formula, it was getting to pitch every fourth day.
