I love baseball, and the door remains open.

My dad was the force behind me early on. He was just infatuated with baseball. He was the one that basically taught me how to play the game. He gave a lot of his time working out with me, practicing and taking me to a lot of different games. It was hard work between both of us.

The other deals with my life and my livelihood and my family and all that I stand for.

I wish that they could have more freedoms to be able to come and play. I know that the only way that they can get out is by, you know, defecting to another country or whatever, or getting on a boat

You know, my family stood for something that they believed in, and I wasn't about to turn my back on them.

When I testified in front of Congress, I know that I was testifying under oath and I told the truth.

There's a lot of history in Boston and a lot of history, obviously, in New York with all the championships.
