My goal is to encourage people to see the possibilities that life holds. So many great things can happen in life, if we can find our own way of doing things, and believe in ourselves, no matter what challenges surround you.

What's cool about baseball is you don't have to see someone for years, but when you see them, you just hustle up and give them a big hug. Those friendships endure.

Slowing it all down and analyzing our mental approach is a surprisingly effective way of becoming a better player.

I think my career will be remembered for what it was and what it is, and I don't need more than that.

I hope what people learned from watching me is that just because you do things a little differently doesn't mean you can't do them just as well.

Find something you love, and go after it, with all of your heart.

In the 8th inning you can't hear the roar of the 9th, all you can do to hold yourself together, and trust.
