"I stood out there in total isolation. Nothing bothered me. I would concentrate to the point where I would not even see the batter; I would only see the bat as he swung. When I was pitching well, I saw only the catcher." - Robin Roberts in Baseball Between the Lines (Donald Honig; Coward, McCann & Geoghegan; 1976)
