Baseball has a funny way to tap you on the shoulder when you least expect it and tells you it's the end.

I'm not a real vocal guy, but sometimes you need to kick someone in the ass.

Some things are meant to be and if it was, you will know it.

It's tougher when you're established. Before, I'd see 13, 14, 15 pitches that I could drive in a game. Now, I see one, two or three, so I have to be better.

Playing the game was the easy part. The real work was in the preparation.

I guess anytime you are mentioned with Hank Aaron, it is the ultimate compliment, not only as a hitter, but obviously, the great ballplayer that he was.
