Honestly, I'm not a big fan of baseball.

My father never talked about the sacrifices that the family made for me.

Building a solid foundation in the early years of a child's life will not only help him or her reach their full potential but will also result in better societies as a whole.

It gives me goose bumps and little butterflies in the stomach when I start thinking about the 'golden slam.'

It's interesting that I had such a close relationship with my grandfather. Because your parents always judge you: they say, 'You shouldn't do this, you shouldn't do that.' But with your grandparents you have a feeling that you can say anything or you can do anything, and they will support you. That's why you have this kind of connection.

What I learned as a young child continues to have a tremendous impact on my life today.

The confidence is there, the game is there, but physically you can't fight nature sometimes. You can't do much about it.
