Do you want to know the truth, or see me hit a few dingers?

Performance-enhancing drugs are an illusion. I wish I had never gotten involved with steroids. It was wrong. It was stupid.

I touched Roger's bat and held it to my heart. My bat will lie next to his. I'm damn proud of that.

I sort of missed one big thing, to touch first base. I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history.

I don't know if I want to break my own record. I think I would rather leave it as it is.

It's pretty obvious there's a lot of corruption in the world right now. That takes many forms. There's economic, political, religious, social corruption. Just the manipulation that takes place with all the information that people are given, and even just the way the world is presented as this concrete block, this concrete idea that there's not really an alternative at this point in the world. You can't really go off and live your own life off in your own world.

What a perfect way to end the home stand, by hitting sixty-two for the city of St. Louis and all the fans. I truly wanted to do it here and I did. Thank you St. Louis.
