If you don’t believe in something, you’ll fall for anything. I believe everything happens for a reason. If you are strong from within, you can will anything. I’m a firm believer that where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Eric Davis Quotes
People saw me as being heroic, but I was no more heroic than I was with other injuries I had, like the lacerated kidney I suffered during the 1990 World Series. It's just that people haven't known anyone with a lacerated kidney, but everyone can relate to someone with cancer.

Birth: | 29th May, 1962 |
Nationality: | American |
Profession: | Baseball Player |
Eric Keith Davis was born in Los Angeles, California, USA. He is a former center fielder for several Major League Baseball teams. He was 21 years old when he broke into the big leagues on May 19, 1984 with the Cincinnati Reds, the team for which he is most remembered. Blessed with a rare combination of excellent foot speed and bat speed, he became the first major league player to hit at least 30 home runs and steal at least 50 bases in the same season in 1987. A series of injuries derailed his career as he moved to the Dodgers and then the Tigers, and he retired in 1994. In 1996, Davis successfully restarted his baseball career with the Reds and was named the comeback player of the year.
