I didn't even watch it, I ran. That's probably all I've got right there. |
I don't want pitchers thinking that's what I'm going up there [trying to get hit], ... If I did, I think I'd get hit a lot more, in a lot worse places. |
I feel almost like a freedom. You get to swing at a pitch no matter where it is. I love it. |
I feel very confident with two strikes. I feel it's more of a freedom. I get very upset with myself if I make an out on a bad pitch before two strikes. With two strikes, it's all out the window. I feel free. |
I found a beautiful, lovely girl and she said yes. So that was pretty amazing. |
I guess Jimmy [Edmonds] said it best: His job is to get on base and it's my job to drive them in tonight, ... He's scoring all the runs. |
I had been facing live pitching right up until I came here. So it wasn't as different for me today as maybe some other guys. |
I had heard other players say 'when you play in St. Louis, you don't want to leave,' ... When you consider it, playing here is a no-brainer. It's awesome, from the organization to the manager, to the coaches to the fans. The main focus here is on winning. |
I had strict orders from Day One that I have a job to do, and I need to do my job. I do have four other brothers and sisters who were able to be there, so it wasn't like my mom was by herself or anything like that. But yeah, there were strict orders that I don't come home. |
I hope not. Because if it does, you're in trouble. He's got some great stuff. |
I just feel very comfortable with two strikes, ... It's one of those situations where you don't want to do anything wrong, but you want to be able to sit back and relax. The one thing I don't want to do is get any kind of jumpiness, any type of anything, into my body except focusing on the baseball. |

I know that at some point in time it's going to be on. I love it, it's one of my favorite plays. |
I played second base all my life. The only time I backhanded balls was on dives. |
I talked to him for 10 minutes. He was alert and knew what was going on. He knew about our comeback win on Friday night and knew what I had done. He knew we had won yesterday and was well aware of all the situations. |
