Golf is the only game I know where you call a foul on yourself.

When you take a job, you don't just accept the pats on the back. You have to accept the kicks in the pants.

It's nice to be in first place. But just because you're not on a winner doesn't mean you're a loser.

Major league baseball is about the history of the game. Baseball history is so important. It's so much more than money.

I don't think there's any player that's more talented than Alex Rodriguez. He cares very deeply about doing well. Baseball is his life. He puts a lot of pressure on himself.

If all of us who love baseball and are doing our jobs, then those who get the game from us will be as proud to be a part of it as we were. And we are. This game is a gift, and I am humbled, very humbled, to accept its greatest honor.

The game itself is an autonomous game, but everybody is a part of it. No contribution is too small.
