Dad was the pitching coach, while Mom was the emotional supporter. Her unconditional love was great, and she wanted what was best for me.

Playing USA Softball has been more to me than I ever imagined possible.

I really like Dontrelle Willis' pitch; he's animated on the mound and is fun to watch - he gets into the game emotionally.

Got any pitches? I got five pitches-rise-ball, curveball, screwball, drop-ball and changeup.

I try to not be too hard on myself regarding my diet. I've always been a workout-to-eat kind of a girl. I like to eat, to say the least.

My husband, after two weeks of dating, asked me, if our relationship were to work out, would I be OK with our first boy being named Ace.

My goal is to never lose. That may not be realistic, but I'm going to try.
