You're just trying to throw the best pitch you can and make sure you hit your spots. I don't have to force nobody.

I want to give my respect, glory and time to the Bible - to the word of God - just as I want to give my respect and time to my work.

There's a lot of things more than baseball that I want to do.

My father was strict and always taught me, no matter who it is, everybody is an uncle. To me, everybody was someone I respect like family. I grew up with that.

I get over bad games right away. Sometimes I've let it go even before I've left the mound. That quick. Why? Because it's over. What can you do about it? Nothing. The only thing you can do is fight if you're still in the game. After that you can do nothing.

I am not a father who wants to give his kids everything. They have to earn it.

Don't worry about what the people say; be yourself, say what you want to say WITH respect.
