My grandmother asks me to race down the street, I'm going to try to beat her. And I'll probably enjoy it. Competitive to a fault, sometimes.

Work hard, love what you do, put your best foot forward and never forget the kid in you.

I like to hit the gym early in the morning. I feel better throughout the day when I get in a workout first thing in the morning.

I've hung out and dated people I've never even met before.

That's how you win - pitching and defense.

My parents always felt if I worked hard enough I could make any dream come true.

This is why you play - to get an opportunity to play in the playoffs.
