So be it. I’m happy to bring the country together.

I'm not here to discuss the past. I'm here to be positive...

I didn't even realize it was a grand slam (number thirty-one) because I was mentally preparing myself for Andy Benes because he struck me out the first time.

I've been thinking about the record since I reached the fifty plateau. But you think about it and then you let it go because you can't waste many brain cells on hours thinking about it.

I care deeply about anyone who listens to my music. That's a sacred connection between the artist and the person who appreciates what you do - it's beyond words how meaningful that is. But I'm not going to stifle myself from trying new things because I feel like people that are already into my stuff might not like it.

The only reason I took steroids was for my health purposes. I did not take steroids to get any gain for any strength purposes.

This is a great thing that's happening in baseball. We don't know if it will ever happen again.
