I'm Telling You, I Don't Like Cheaters.

People Say You Can't Go Out And Eat With Your Players. I Say Why Not.

It Is A Great Honor To Be Inducted Into The Pacific Coast League Hall Of Fame. When You Honor Me With This Distinction, You Really Honor The Players Who Put Me There. All Of The Honors I Receive Became A Reality Only Through The Contributions Of My Players. In Addition To Myself, You Also Honor My Family And The Dodger Organization. I Accept This Recognition With Pride And Gratitude.

Say 'dodgers' And People Know You're Talking About Baseball. Say 'braves' And They Ask, 'what Reservation?' Say 'reds' And They Think Of Communism. Say 'padres' And They Look Around For A Priest.

I'm So Excited I Had A Seven-car Police Motorcycle Escort. I've Had Escorts Before, But Nothing Like This... I'm Really In Awe, Coming Here And Seeing So Many Cars, So Much Enthusiasm.

I've Been Able To Dine With Presidents, With Leaders Of Corporations, Traveled For 14 Years With (financier And Philanthropist) Michael Milken, Who Has Taught Me So Much About Life. Hanging Around With Them, It's Nothing I Could Have Believed In Grade School. I Could Be With All Of Them? Milton Berle, Don Rickles, Dean Martin ... This Former Third-string Pitcher From The Norristown High Baseball Team And The Son Of An Italian Immigrant? I Really Am In Awe When I Think That Has Happened To Me. What A Life.
