I don't ever remember having any bad times here in Pittsburgh.

I don't sign for white people.

It's a relief now to be able to stand next to my godfather and finally feel like I've accomplished something in the game of baseball.

I'd like to help educate kids about the Major Leagues - what to anticipate, what to expect, what they'll need to do to prepare themselves.

Serra High school, to me, was my most enjoyable time for me in my entire life. That was the only time I was free. We just played baseball because it was fun.

I never stop looking for things to try and make myself better.

I like to be against the odds. I'm not afraid to be lonely at the top. With me, it's just the satisfaction of the game. Just performance.
