He makes it look easy. You wish there was another league he could get called up to.

I don't care how much money he (Frank Viola) makes. He can have my locker, I'll take him to all the best restaurants and show him New York. He can even have my wife, but he can't have my number, no way.

Plus, when you get in tough situations, like the bases loaded and nobody out, you never give in.

When I went back to Shea last year it really hit me how much the fans care for me, it still gives me goose bumps. I want to do the right thing for them and my family.

I don't feel any pressure. I just try to stay calm, follow my game plan, and try not to get overthrown.
