There's not too many teams that can succeed on and off the field together.

I hope others take as much pride in the sport as I do.

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.

I'm relaxed at the plate. I'm not trying to do too much.

I know what it takes to win ball games.

I don't understand some people, using biblical terms to criticize me when this is just a game.

I blame myself every night we lose.
