What I try to do is never to hurt anybody else and figure if I don't, then I'm not likely to get hurt myself.

More quotes by Stan Musial
I never realized that batting a little ball around could cause so much commotion. I now know how (Charles) Lindbergh must have felt when he returned from St. Louis.
Stan Musial
I started to crouch because that way I could guard the plate better, and I always wanted to hit .300 in the big leagues.
Stan Musial
I learned to hit with a broomstick and a ball of tape and I could always get that bat on the ball.
Stan Musial
Used to be bats had thick handles and a big barrel. Then they found it's not the size of the bat that gets home runs - it's the speed with which you can swing it.
Stan Musial
A lot of hitters stay away from the plate, some are close up, some are forward, some are back. The thing about hitting is this: You have to know the strike zone. That's the most important thing. Hit strikes and put the bat on the ball.
Stan Musial
Always wanted to be a Major League player. Loved baseball. Followed it. Loved to play. Plus, I could always hit.
Stan Musial
The key to hitting for high average is to relax, concentrate, and don't hit the fly ball to center field.
Stan Musial
What made me sign with the Cardinals? Because they used salesmanship, the personal touch.
Stan Musial
There was never a day when I was as good as Joe DiMaggio at his best. Joe was the best, the very best I ever saw.
Stan Musial
There is no one correct way to bat, and so of course there is no one correct stance for it.
Stan Musial
I love to play this game of baseball. I love putting on the uniform.
Stan Musial
The one unbreakable rule about hitting is this: if a batter hits well with his own particular stance and swing, think twice - or more - before suggesting a change.
Stan Musial
I'm a musician. I play harmonica for relaxation. A good way to relax and entertain people. An excellent way to have fun.
Stan Musial
Hitting is like swimming. Once you learn the stroke, you never forget it.
Stan Musial
Unless you give it all you've got, there isn't any sense in playing.
Stan Musial
I think I had the smallest handle around. When I got my bats, I even trimmed them down. I used to scrape them. Some years later when I started getting older, I used to start with a 33 and in the summer it got down to 31 and then probably in September got down to 30.
