I struck out with two men on base. I was so angry, so frustrated, I turned and without even thinking about it, snapped my bat over my thigh. The bat split right in half. Afterward, reporters asked me if it was the first time I'd ever broken a bat over my thigh. "I broke an aluminum bat over my knee in college," I said. (I was just kidding).

Don't run too fast through life. You only have one.

It's all about the attitude, gut, heart and determination to go out and give 120% every time to try and help the team win.

I took a lot of things for granted - especially how I treated my body.

Back before I injured my hip, I thought going to the gym was for wimps.

My workout was running down fly balls, stealing a base, or running for my life on the football field.

I'll never worry about not being successful. I'll just take it one day at a time, one season at a time. And play as hard as I can.
