I don't know why people say I'm not supposed to be doing what I'm doing. I'm just trying to do my job. I'm blessed, and I'm glad that I'm blessed.

I thought about it a lot (losing the 2002 NLCS). It's something you have to go home and wrap it up because if you keep thinking about it, you're going to take that to Spring Training and you're not going to be able to concentrate on your work.

I try to spend as much time as possible with God and my family. That's more important than anything I'm doing in baseball.

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

In my heart and mind, I know I can hit anybody. I'm always relaxed. It's hard to explain. It's like playing with my kids. It feels natural.

If it weren't for Jesus, I would not be where I am today and my life would be without purpose. I've heard kids say they want to be just like me when they grow up. They should know I want to be just like Jesus.

I hope by the time that I'm done in this game, I can have half the numbers Stan Musial had in his career.
