Mike Morse Quotations

He knows so much about the game. He's such a great teacher. The thing about him is that everything that he teaches you, he's doing it for a reason.

I think whatever position I get to play at and get comfortable at is my best position. I actually feel great in the outfield, I feel great at first, I feel great at third and I feel great at short.

I think I need to play every day. I look at it in a positive way. I've been through a lot worse in this game.

I was pretty shocked to catch it. I wanted to get to the spot and give it a good shot. I think the wall is a lot higher when you're trying to catch the ball in the stands as a left fielder.

Those were the first two balls ever hit to me. It's cool. It's different. I never played outfield before.

We opened a store in Brunswick in 1959, in Lodi in 1980, in Wads-worth in 1992 and in Wooster in 2000.

I've been through a lot worse. I need to get at-bats, play every day, instead of being up there just sitting around. I look at it in a positive way. I need to show them I belong.

Now, I just want to stay in the big leagues, and I'll do whatever they suggest to help me do that.

A play like that one today was nice, because the fans gave me a good ovation. And a play like that makes it look like I know what I'm doing.

You never do that. You only control what you do on the field and let that stuff work itself out.

They seemed a little surprised when I said that, but I didn't think anything of it.

There's always a salad. I've never eaten so much salad. And strawberries. I bet I eat a half-pound of strawberries a day.

It was lonely out there at first but now it's pretty cool. You have to understand that they think enough of you ... that they want to find a place for you.

It was my first ball ever. I tried to catch it and I missed.

I'm only eight pounds heavier, but I'm much stronger. I can rotate so much better. We worked a lot on the core muscles.

I need to get at-bats and I need to play every day. It's better than sitting around. I look at in a positive way, that this is an opportunity to show them I can play up there.

I hired a guy who cooks for Raul and he got me on a good eating regime. I think it helped me a lot. I never really knew how much eating right can actually help you and give you energy.

The last week of spring training is basically the start of the season. You take everything you've worked on in camp and put it all together.
