Quote by Al Kaline

Summary

This quote suggests that outfielders may not have stronger throwing arms in baseball due to two reasons. Firstly, it implies that today's teams do not prioritize outfield practice as much as in the past, which consequently reduces the opportunity for outfielders to develop their throwing skills effectively. Secondly, it suggests that baseball is now competing with other popular sports like basketball, football, and soccer for talented athletes who might possess stronger throwing arms, resulting in a scarcity of highly skilled outfielders with robust throwing abilities.

I knew from a young age that I wanted to be an actor. I never even thought about other careers. The acting field is certainly not the path many Indian parents encourage their children to take, but mine were very supportive. They wanted me to have an education, but understood that this is what I wanted to do.
