I'm very modest. I know that baseball is a very humbling game.

There's a lot more to playing in the big leagues in New York than just the baseball part.

When I first got to the majors in 2004, female fans held up signs asking me to marry them. Those girls today were what, 13, 14? I'm 23, but that's a little young even for me.

Because Jesus Christ has prepared Himself from the foundations of the world we can trust Him as one uniquely qualified through the fullness of His love for His Father and us. His love, meekness, condescension, knowledge, power, commitment to agency, and obedience combine to bring this elusive peace to all of God’s children. Our peace was purchased by the shedding of the innocent blood of God’s purest Son. Our trust in His capacity to bring us this peace can be complete because that has been part of His work and His glory from the beginning.

I'm very modest. I know that baseball is a very humbling game.

Whether you have a great game or a terrible game, tomorrow's another day and you've got to come out here and compete.

Most of my friends are people I've known since I was a kid. I don't have an entourage or anything.
