I ate the Green Monster. It tasted pretty nasty. It was pretty painful.

I was raised in the church by my grandmother who made sure we went to Sunday School, read the Bible and went to church every Sunday. Every night we read Bible stories before we went to bed.

Spring training is for getting to know your teammates and forming a chemistry. I dont like it.

Whether I'm down or whether things are great, I try to stay the same person all the time.

I always think about what would Christ do in any circumstances.

I want to hit the ball and I want to get at-bats. The results really dont matter to me.

I was trying my best to just stop that ball from going over the fence, I'd sacrifice my body if I have to. I've done that my whole career.
