I've pretty much grown up to hide my emotions for the most part.

If I'm in the car after a bad game, I may think about ways I need to improve. But the second I reach home, the game's over. Work doesn't come inside with me. Same thing in reverse - I don't bring my personal life into the ballpark. Learning to keep it all separate has made life easier.

One of the things I've done is tell myself I can't let bad things that happen to me on the field, off the field, whatever, affect me.

I'm pretty sure that China is way bigger than the Dominican.

I don't think some athletes understand how big it is to be an athlete, what they can do with just a simple gesture of shaking a kid's hand. It can make a fan's day. It can make a fan's life.

I love L.A., but you can get into a lot of trouble out here.
