You Get What You Pitch For

"When I'm managing, I have some favorite sayings: 'Do not permit the pressure to exceed the pleasure.' 'Be present, not perfect.' 'The moment you're worried about what people think about you...is the moment you stop being yourself.' They work for my kind of pitching--in baseball--and when you're attempting to persuade a player to try something new or different. Sully's captured that wisdom and a lot more in his terrific book. Check it out."
