My favorite driver is always either the bad guy or the underdog.

I think everyone would love to see Jeff Gordon lose or get run into the wall, but I think he uses that - similar to me.

But now, I get up every morning and go to the gym because I don't like waking up stiff or in pain and wondering if my hip is going to hurt me.

Really, it's not harder to train for them because once baseball starts you play everyday almost.

I wanted to stay close enough so mom could see me play - where I could go home if I needed to.

So you have to be more mentally focused in baseball.

I'm the type of person, I cross the bridges once I get to 'em. I don't try to plan my life three, four months in advance, because you don't know if tomorrow's promised to you.
