More quotes by Eric Davis
If you're feeling pressure, then you shouldn't be here.
Eric Davis
I'll have a stamp on me forever. There will always be questions. I brought new fans to the Orioles' organization, and that's good.
Eric Davis
I don't listen to what people say about me and I don't read what they write about me. People can compare me to anyone they want to, but I'm not going to worry about it.
Eric Davis
Blessings can come in a number of ways. The Lord doesn't give you what you want, the Lord gives you what you need.
Eric Davis
When you get back on the field and do things, any doubts you've developed leave. The more consistent you become, the fewer doubts you have.
Eric Davis
I was disappointed in everything - my start and the team's start. People got down on me, but I never got down on myself. I still believed I could be the type of player everyone, including me, thought I was going to be.
Eric Davis
My only goal is to play 162 games and help this team win. If I can do that, everything will take care of itself.
Eric Davis

Eric Davis
There's only one Mark McGwire. The man walked over 160 times. Just think. If he walks 60 times, he might hit 100 homers.
Eric Davis
Nothing I did contributed to me having cancer, so I can't sit back and say, 'Oh why me.' Why not me? Why does tragedy always have to hit someone else?
Eric Davis
You don't protect Mark McGwire. The only way to protect him is hit 70 homers yourself.
Eric Davis
I don't think any player lives up to his potential, because people out there put you so high on a pedestal, you'll never be as good as they expect.
Eric Davis
I was able to get operated on four days after I was diagnosed. It was just a matter of getting this baseball-sized tumor out of me. I reflect now on how lucky I was to be in the situation where I could get the best possible help and treatment.
Eric Davis
I could've played basketball, but my mind was on baseball. I didn't know what I was in for. In high school it was a matter of talent. No one told you what to do.
Eric Davis
The last two times I went to spring training, I had to win a job, and if I didn't get off to a blazing start, I'm on the bench. Now, I've proven myself, so it's not essential that I get off to a real good start.
Eric Davis
I want to establish myself as the first Eric Davis, not the next Willie Mays.
Eric Davis
I ate while I was taking chemo. The doctors didn't know. I really didn't get any nausea. I didn't have side effects. I would be drained for a day and a half.
Eric Davis
Most of the places I've been, I've been a main piece of the puzzle.
