Winning is one of the most special moments. Every time I take the field it's a special moment. The fans are the ones that make it special. Because that's what we do it for.

I have the greatest job in the world. Only one person can have it. You have shortstops on other teams - I'm not knocking other teams - but there's only one shortstop on the Yankees.

It doesn't feel different being here (at the All-Star Game) I feel like I'm on an All-Star team everyday.

It doesn't seem like the season really gets under way until you have your home opener

I try to stay as private as possible; I know that's difficult, especially playing here in New York, but I make an attempt at it.

In my opinion, I've had the greatest job in the world. I got a chance to be the shortstop for the New York Yankees, and there's only one of those. And I always felt as though it was my job, was to try to provide joy and entertainment for you guys, but it can't compare to what you brought me. So for that, thank you very much.

I try to sign for as many kids as possible. Kids come first, and I'll always sign for a kid before an adult.
