I don't think much about whether fans will remember me.

I have always loved the Bay Area. I spent a lot of time in the Bay Area. I started my career there. That's a huge part of the excitement for me.

I used to lead off when I was a rookie. I've always been able to bunt.

For me, I tend to sit back sometimes and just count my blessings because of how long I've played.

The toughest thing in hitting shouldn't be deciding when to swing. It is, for me, deciding when not to swing. You should be swinging from the time you get into the batter's box until something says don't swing.

It's good to know you're working for someone you're familiar with, who's a friend and he has your back and you have his back also.

I'm at the point in my career where to be a winner is more important than any individual things.
