As a young child, I was never a crier. I never cried to get my way, or even when I was in pain.

We'll probably only consider a handful of individuals. We'll bring up people who can accumulate either innings or at-bats, so we can hopefully gauge where they stand as a prospective Major Leaguer.

There is nothing better than having a personal-best day, being in shape and pushing myself beyond my own limits.

To me, the decathlon is its own little society and I am part of that culture.

When I was little, I wasn't allowed to put sugar on my breakfast cereal because it made me so hyper.

I think what my parents did was perfect. They were strict, concerned about my safety and held me back just a little.

I always know where the scissors are.
