New Day rocks. I can't lie.

My dreams are bigger than money; they're bigger than fame.

I'll never be that guy who's going to yell and scream at people.

If you hit .200 and you win or .300 and you win, it's all the same. Just so you win.

I like to see my name in the box score.

I want to be the best player I can be.

Hard work doesn't start during the game. Hard work starts the night before.

I've always wanted to be on a winning team, be competitive and have something to shoot for in October. It's never been a money situation.

I'm lucky. I got a chance to play major-league baseball.

I just mind my business and do what I have to do to get ready for the baseball season.

I go out there every day, take early batting practice, fly balls.

Kids always think about being the MVP.

All my life in professional baseball, people said 'He could be better.'

Father and son games - that was the best day. We'd be dressed at 6 o'clock in the morning. The game would be at 7 o'clock at night... And we'd play at, like, 5.

I may not hit 50, 40 or 30 home runs, but I can do the little things like moving runners over that don't show up in the box score.

There's certain people that you owe it to, for the things they've done for you.

You can't sensationalize a story that is a heartfelt story.

I know if I do something wrong, it's going to be all over the news.

Anybody can be a dad. I just want to be a good parent. I want to be a dad that my kids can talk to. I want to have a relationship with them.

My dad wasn't a power hitter, and I didn't think I'd be a power hitter because the person I wanted to be like was him, and he was the one that taught me to play the game.

You play the game a certain way, and people think your personality off the field should be just as electrifying. That's not the case.

I'm really not comfortable doing interviews in a group, in press conferences. One-on-one, I'm all right, but those press conferences at the All-Star Game, I just don't... I feel better when I'm by myself.

We teach our kids to be fair and things like that and if you make a mistake you apologize for it.

Nobody wants to win a game on a bad call.
