Enthusiasm Quote by Andy Van Slyke

“I can only guess that, for guys in their 30s and 40s who watched me play, they understood that the score never mattered and my paycheck never mattered (in relation) to how I played. I played with Little League enthusiasm and professional flair. That's what fans are really looking for.” quote by Andy Van Slyke — Download Open image
