Juan Marichal

I faced Gibson many times and faced Sandy Koufax three times.

We are all so close. We are godfather to each others' kids. I was the best man at Jesus' wedding.

Those days were very tough. All my teammates are white, and it was a different time. I couldn't go out to eat with the white players; I had to wait until someone brought something out to the bus. We couldn't stay in the same hotels.

But when I stopped facing Sandy, I had to face Don Drysdale. No one on my team wanted to face him.
