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 like a calm life where nobody bothers me.

I know, it's amazing, but I never feel like I have done anything. When people say that, it makes me uncomfortable because I'm not that kind of person. I just go out there and try to do my job.

Because I have a little bit more, that means I'm better than you? No. Unacceptable.

I'm human -- all I do is try to do my job. When I don't do it, the way it happened today, it's out of my control. He put the ball in play and it happened to find a hole. I wish I could take it back, but I can't. You move on.

I demand my kids be respectful, responsible and grateful. And they have to love the Lord with all their hearts.

If I have to win one game, I’d have a hard time taking anybody over Dustin Pedroia as my second baseman.
