I was born to hit a baseball. I can hit a baseball.
But to be the best, you must face the best. And to overcome your fear, you must deal with the best.
I feel my time in baseball has come and gone. I feel like I had a great career. I had a lot of fun and have a lot of great memories. At one point in time, I'll be able to tell it all. Right now that's in the past. I see things differently. I more want to help.
I don't sign for white people.
It's not the name that makes the player. It's the player.
I've always played for the acceptance of my godfather (Willie Mays) and father (Bobby Bonds).
