The thing I learned when I was playing was that your best way of winning was to make it difficult for the other team to score in the last three innings.

I'm ready to do something different.

Just because you're down to your last strike, you're not out yet. You can always do more. You'll always have more at-bats to take. That's true in baseball, in rescuing animals, and in life generally.

The game has never seen a better catcher than YADIER MOLINA.

Even when you have three strikes, you're still not out. There is always something else you can do.

It's like most anything. If you want to be a loser, there's always a way to dwell on the negative. If you want to win, there's always a way to think positively.

Being involved in competition is a privilege and an opportunity. Seek to make the most of that opportunity by pushing yourself to the limit of your abilities. When it is over, you will have earned the respect of your opponents, your coaches, and yourself.
