Coaches Hot Seat Quotes of the Day – Wednesday, July 11, 2012 – Hank Aaron

“I don’t feel right unless I have a sport to play or at least a way to work up a sweat.”

And

“I looked for the same pitch my whole career, a breaking ball. All of the time. I never worried about the fastball. They couldn’t throw it past me, none of them.”
