You're not always going to be perfect, but I always try to be.

I'm not comfortable being that outgoing guy. That's not me. I never used to talk to anybody.

I don't feel any pressure when I'm up there at the plate. I feel it when I'm in the on-deck circle, but when I'm in the box, it's just me and the pitcher, and I get zoned in.

I try not to have personal goals. Personal numbers is a mind-set. The only numbers I care about are in the win column.

You can't change your game based on where you're playing.

If making an error doesn't make you mad, what's the point? Why put all the work in?

Obviously, success breeds more confidence. And it's pretty easy to be confident if you're getting a hit almost every time at bat.
