At Ten I Was Playing Against 18-year-old

Yes, I Had To Learn How To Live Life Outside, But I Had So Many People Help Me.

When I Got To Professional Ball I Used To Play 150 Games Every Year. It Depends On How Many Games There Was.

"and My Father Didn't Have Money For Me To Go To College. And At That Particular Time They Didn't Have Black Quarterbacks, And I Don't Think I Could Have Made It In Basketball, Because I Was Only 5′ 11". So I Just Picked Baseball."

At Ten I Was Playing Against 18-year-old Guys. At 15 I Was Playing Professional Ball With The Birmingham Black Barons, So I Really Came Very Quickly In All Sports.
