I had Bo. I know Bo has good stuff, especially if he's healthy. He said his arm is good. The guy knows how to pitch. He can throw every day, he'll never complain, you won't know he's around. He was a pleasure to have on my team. He's looking for an opportunity, and that's what will give him an opportunity.
More Quotes from Dusty Baker:
The guy's a stolen-base man. We had him one time on that pitch out in the third and didn't execute properly. We know he's going to run. We just don't know when he's going to run.Dusty Baker
I was joking with him -- I think he's a third-degree black belt, and I think some of his reactions came into play there.
Dusty Baker
His doctor said it would be better if he continued to throw until the surgery to keep his arm strength going.

Ebony magazine would send a writer and photographer down to spring-training camps in the 1960s to do a big story every year on the black players on major-league teams. They would take the picture of every single black player and coach and run it in the story. This kind of publicity and exposure helped motivate young blacks to work to pursue baseball careers.

It's nice to have him on our side. We used to hate for him to come up and hate for him to get on base when he played for Colorado and Florida. The thing about it is he works on his skills. He's one of the first guys here in the morning and one of the last guys to go in the evening. He's here almost beating the coaches. He comes to work on his bunting or lift or stretch or early hitting or something.

Hank Aaron used to tell us all the time, 'You may not understand what I say, but retain it because someday you might be able to use it when that light comes on,'
