My mom and dad gave me everything they could have given me.

I was always thinking, 'One day I want to be like Bernie Williams.'

I don't want to be hiding from people. It would be difficult to be recognized everywhere, so that I couldn't do things ordinary people do.

I think I can play in the big leagues 10 or 15 years. But more important to me is winning-win, make the playoffs.

I learned that I have to work hard every day, that I can't get down if I get in a slump.

I just need to come to the park every day thinking something good is going to happen to me and hoping today is going to be the day.
