These days baseball is different. You come to spring training, you get your legs ready, you arms loose, your agents ready, your lawyer lined up. ↗

I had only played five games in my senior year in high school. I was not large enough. Hell, when I graduated, I was about five foot four and weighed 120 pounds. I didn't go with the Dodgers until spring training of 1940 and I weighed all of 155 pounds soaking wet. ↗

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. ↗

For some reason in Spring Training, everything just clicked. You don't try to do anything in Spring Training but get ready, but things fell into place. ↗

I've kind of looked at my whole career as a spring training invite. ↗
