“My career spanned the era when relievers started to become more import...” — Dennis Eckersley Quote

“My career spanned the era when relievers started to become more important.”

“I had never been to the playoffs, and it was exciting. The fans went through the roof. They were excited about the whole team. It was great to be traded to a city like Chicago, which was a lot like Boston.”

“Pitching... sometimes I did so poorly, it brought me to tears.”

“Now is the era of intellect, information and the Internet.”

“I hope to be around past the 90's. I don't want to just be categorized as one of this era. My goal is to have a career that stands.”

“That's the era we grew up in. It's weak to go to a psychiatrist.”
