There were a lot of people on the other side of the field saying, 'Maybe he's doing this, not doing that.' It's good to bounce back the year after and put up some good numbers, so they know that you're a guy who works.

I am a better hitter with runners in scoring position.

In this lineup, anywhere I hit, I don't care. I always go out there and swing the bat the same way.

I couldn't believe I hit .342. I hit .333 one month in Triple-A. Otherwise, I hit .279 in the minor leagues. I'm proud of myself.

I don't just want to play in the playoffs. I want to win the World Series.

I wish to improve my power, but not in a home run way.
