It doesn't matter if I hit a home run. It doesn't matter if we win a game. It doesn't matter if I go four for four. Whatever happens at the end of the day, as long as I glorify His name, that's what it's all about.

People ask me if I believe how quickly my career has taken off. I just tell them that Jesus Christ is my strength. God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. That is more important than anything I could ever do in baseball.

What I lose today I can't make up tomorrow. I have to do it today.

I play to represent God, something bigger than baseball.

I don't want to be too stiff, because then my hands won't be as quick.

Hopefully, at the end of my career, I can look back and say, 'Wow, what a game it was in Game 3 in 2011'.

If I need to help my team and play a different position for that game because somebody is hurt or they want to give a day off to somebody, I'll do it.
