Baseball Quote by Newberry, Tommy

“Success will be measured at the end of your career, not at the peak. When you’re finished with baseball, if you love God, if you’re still in love with your wife, if your children know who you are, and if your reputation is still intact, then you’ll be successful.” quote by Newberry, Tommy
