It's true that in Cuba there are double standards, there's opportunism, and there is a lack of freedom in some ways.

I think that this necessity to travel, to see, it's part of human nature.

Cuban public is special - they participate, generate a lot of energy, both in a positive and negative sense. It's always an expressive audience.

Playing catch is often the first professional act of the day, it's a transition from personal life to team business.

It's too much fun. My changeup has come a long way since high school.
