I wouldn't mind being a hero to a kid. I grew up idolizing players, so I know how important that is for a lot of younger kids.

The biggest thing I want is for the hitter coming up behind me to get a good pitch to hit.

I just go out and play.

People have the right to say what they want, but as long as I can go to bed at night and look myself in the mirror, I'll be all right.

Moving to New York was the best decision I ever made.

I love Boston and I always will. I'll always have terrific memories and great fans here.

I take pride knowing that I hustle, day in and day out.
