Education is very important to me, as is helping children.

It's an honor to be playing with these four players and to be a part of their fifth World Series title and my first.

You can never pat yourself on the back during the season. Then you get complacent, stop working and let yourself slide.

I've been very fortunate to play for four great organizations, but New York really takes the cake. Wearing the pinstripes is something that's very special to me, and it's the greatest organization in sports history.

My goal was to go to college and come out the best player.

I'm not one of those crazy collectors - I don't have a hundred watches. Only five or six. But I do like to wear a nice watch, especially if we're on the road and I'm wearing a nice suit.

The only dream I've ever had is to become a major league baseball player.
