I'm just like everybody else. I have two arms, two legs and four-thousand hits.

The thing I would like most to leave behind is to be remembered for trying hard.

I never gave up as a player, and I won't give up as someone who wants to go to the Hall of Fame, because it's the ultimate goal for a baseball player or a football player or a basketball player.

Day after day there are lots of fans here and it helps a lot with them out there rooting for us.

If you screw up and do something, don't lie about it; come clean.

People say I don't have great tools. They say that I can't throw like Ellis Valentine or run like Tim Raines or hit with power like Mike Schmidt. Who can? I make up for it in other ways, by putting out a little bit more. That's my theory, to go through life hustling. In the big leagues, hustle usually means being in the right place at the right time. It means backing up a base. It means backing up your teammate. It means taking that headfirst slide. It means doing everything you can do to win a baseball game.

I came to Vegas because I work 20 days a month here; I couldn't live anywhere else.
