Rafael Palmeiro
I've always known to come to the ballpark and play and be in the lineup. I've never missed time because of injuries. I've had days off, where I knew coming in that I wasn't going to play, but I've never sat out 10 days in a row during the season. That was totally new to me. To play a whole career and not know what that's like, that's unusual. Now I'm dealing with it as best I can.

It's just hard to really focus when the whole the stadium is booing and yelling. I thought that would be a way to maybe try and block out some of the booing.
|
Let me start by telling you this. I have never used steroids. Period.

Maybe if I have some solid years and don't test positive, they can say he went out and hit that way. Maybe that's what I can do.
|
Maybe it wasn't the right thing to do. I've never been in a situation where I'm getting booed so badly and I just really don't know how to handle it.

My day will come when I can say what happened. As of right now, I can't say anything. Hopefully soon.
