It might be because it was the first one. They really don't know what they missed. The United States team is like an All-Star team. The Dominican team is like an All-Star team. That tournament was almost a big league tournament. |
It was a great time. It was a great experience. Being able to compete and represent your country is something I will never forget. It's something big for me. |
It was something big for me. Every game was like a playoff game. That's something that's going to help my career. |
It's a routine that's working for me. I really don't try to do too much. I just try to keep my swing fresh. |
That's all people are talking about there. |
That's what everybody's saying. It's hard, because it's the middle of spring training and you're trying to get ready for the season. I don't know how they're going to do the next one. |
The last two games haven't been so good for us. We've got to turn the page and try to do better (today). |
They (Venezuela) asked me to play, but that's all I've heard. They did say they were going to have three catchers. Some people are saying that I would be the DH. |
This is a team that knows how to come back. We don't let one game get us down. Remember early in the season, we had some tough times. |
This is baseball. You have to play hard and do the little things to win a baseball game. The last two games haven't been good for us. |
This is teamwork. We've been able to do the little things. |
We want to let people know that we also contribute to this country. |
We'll see. We have 14 more games to go. Anything can happen. |
We're all pretty confident. We're looking forward to getting going and topping what we did last season. |
We've been doing the little things well. We always make sure we play the game hard. Unfortunately, these last two games, some of those things didn't go real good for us. |
