I owe baseball. Baseball don't owe me a damn thing.

Practice the game the way you're going to play the game. Practice hard and play hard. Run hard and above all else, hustle every moment you're on the field where you are practicing or playing in a game.

When I get the record, all it will make me is the player with the most hits. I'm also the player with the most at bats and the most outs. I never said I was a greater player than (Ty) Cobb.

If I had been busted for drugs instead of gambling, I'd still be managing the Reds and baseball would be paying for my rehab.
Pete Rose
Image
I played with 11 Hall of Famers and played against 52 Hall of Famers, and I don't know any of them linked to steroids.

Am I still in uniform? Then I ain't retired.
Pete Rose
Image
I never gave up as a player, and I won't give up as someone who wants to go to the Hall of Fame, because it's the ultimate goal for a baseball player or a football player or a basketball player.

He (Eric Davis) gets power from his bat speed.....it's like he has cork in his arms.

Some players you pat their butts, some players you kick their butts, some players you leave alone.

I came to Vegas because I work 20 days a month here I couldn't live anywhere else.

There is an old saying that money can't buy happiness. If it could, I would buy myself four hits every game.
