Clemens Quotes : pic 000573302
There are three types of pitchers you have to deal with. Some, you just have to tell what town they're in, remind them where they are. Some, you remind them about mechanics, and some, you have to bust their tail. You have to make them your friend and have them trust you.

If I ever find a pitcher who has heat, a good curve, and a slider, I might seriously consider marrying him, or at least proposing.

When you first hear about this guy (Stan Musial), you say, 'it can't be true.' When you first meet him you say, 'It must be an act.' But as you watch him and watch him and see how he performs and how he comports himself you say, 'He's truly one of a kind.' There will never be another like him.

Clemens Quotes : pic 000169937
Depending on how he gripped the ball and how hard he threw it, Satchel Paige had pitches that included the bat-dodger, the two-hump blooper, the four-day creeper, the dipsy-do, the Little Tom, the Long Tom, the bee ball, the wobbly ball, the hurry-up ball and the nothin' ball.

Clemens Quotes : pic 000059487
He (Kris Medlin) has a communication with a force in pitching that most of us can't talk to. It's an awareness; it's a sixth sense. When he steps in and stares in to that catcher, that little man on his shoulder's going to take over and tell him what to do. And he's done it well.
Clemens Quotes : pic 000833908

Clemens Quotes : pic 001181065
I want to stay around longer than the pitchers who were at the top when I came into the big leagues. I don't want to be gone and have all the old guys - Seaver, Carlton, Ryan and Sutton - still pitching. I got rid of Palmer, now I want to outlast the rest of them.
Clemens Quotes : pic 001661144
The best hitter I ever saw was Ted Williams.
Clemens Quotes : pic 001032195

Who is his manager? Milton Bradley.
Clemens Quotes : pic 001707714
He's a little deceiving. He doesn't have a real good arm slot as far as trying to pick the ball up out of his hand. He made some pretty good pitches when he had to.
Clemens Quotes : pic 000349303

Clemens Quotes : pic 000520598
Vagisil. Any one of them will give you another two to three inches drop on your curve ball. Of course if the umps are watching me real close I'll rub a little jalapeno up my nose, get it runnin', and if I need to load the ball up I just ... (wipes his nose)
Clemens Quotes : pic 000657849

Clemens Quotes : pic 000429964
When an artist wants to paint a painting, they have all those things in their head that they want to portray on a canvas. It's the same thing when I'm pitching.

Clemens Quotes : pic 000678492
My situation is different from Mark's. I'm not looking for home runs, I'm looking for the playoffs.
Clemens Quotes : pic 000515345

Clemens Quotes : pic 000051513
