My job is to give my team a chance to win.

I can honestly say it took two full years for me to get over the fact that I was no longer a baseball player.

I can't imagine Joe DiMaggio was a better all-around player than Dale Murphy.

Baseball life is a tough life on the family.

Put the right pitching mechanics together with good health, and there's nothing surprising about lasting a long time.

My ability to throw a baseball was a gift. It was a God-given gift. And I am truly appreciative of that gift.

Everyone has limits. You just have to learn what your limits are and deal with them accordingly.

Enjoying success requires the ability to adapt.

Pitching in the big leagues is a dream. Preparing to pitch in the big leagues is a nightmare!

It helps if the hitter thinks you're a little crazy.

My journey as a player is complete.

I love talking about baserunning.

I don't think I ever got proper credit about being smart about the game.

Well, Rickey's not one of them, so that's 49 percent right there.

Oakland is home, and you always want to go home. Anytime you get the chance, you're happy to go home.

I love the game and I wanted to continue playing. It came to a time that I had to stop.

I like playing for Oakland, they have a very colourful uniform.

If you look at some of the people in the Hall of Fame, my numbers are compatible.

I'm disappointed about how my career ended.
