:22:01
And they gave me number 6, right?
:22:04
Ruth was 3, Gehrig was 4,
DiMaggio's 5 and me, number 6.
:22:08
I hated that.
Being in line with the other guys.
:22:11
And the press, they were all over me.
Callin' me a hillbilly.
:22:15
I was, you know?
:22:17
I get to New York
with a $7 suitcase, an $8 suit.
:22:22
My whole town's got 2,000 people in it.
Yankee stadium's got 40 times that.
:22:26
Im 18, and everybody's
expecting me to hit a home run...
:22:29
...every time I get up to the plate.
:22:33
That was killing me. I couldn't hit the ball.
:22:37
So Casey sent me
back down to the minors.
:22:41
I couldn't hit there neither.
:22:44
Finally, I called up my dad.
Told him, "I'm quitting.
:22:48
"I can't do it no more."
:22:50
He said, "Where you at?"
:22:52
I told him. He come on down.
Kansas City's where I was.
:22:56
Throws all my shit in a suitcase,
and says, "Okay, let's go.
:23:00
"You can come back to work the mines
with me, the rest of your life."
:23:05
I started crying.
:23:07
He just let me have it, boy.
:23:09
He told me, you know,
"You're being such a baby.
:23:12
"I thought I raised a man,
you're nothing but a coward.
:23:15
"Be a man," he says.
:23:18
The truth was, I was lonesome, scared.
:23:24
Anyway, I started hitting again after that.
:23:29
Came back up and they gave me number 7.
:23:33
I was glad about it, I hated that number 6.
:23:42
Look...
:23:44
...I don't want no more money
from that M&M corporation.
:23:48
Listen to yourself.
:23:50
There is no M&M without the two of us.
:23:54
You're the one carrying us now.
:23:56
- That ain't true.
- You do what you want with it.
