[Schilling] spots his pitches well and he elevates his whole game when he needs to. He's done that his whole career. I think we battled and put together some good at-bats, but he got us in the end. |
At some point you have to get away from the game and enjoy your life. I like to golf and travel, and take a good three weeks off before I start lifting. |
But I don't look at last year negatively. I look at it like I've been through it and I've been able to hopefully used those situations to my advantage in the upcoming years. |
Confidence is something I've always had and something I'll probably never lose. I've never taken it for granted when I had success, but I really feel like I'm in a different position now. I don't think I'll ever lose confidence -- I'll just have more preparation. |
For a young kid, who has gone through and conquered what he has, to read something like that, it's amazing. This is a business and there are a lot of times you have to fight through adversity, but I really believe I do care for the game in a special way. I hope every kid sees that in me. |
Getting off to a good start is key for us. The last few seasons have been rough, and for the pitching to come though like it has is the biggest key. The big start is what we need and hopefully we can keep it going. |
Good kid. I was excited for him. He didn't know what to say. |
I can see the hand while all that is going on. And he is telling me he can't find a (new) break. I'm telling him where the break is, and he's telling me he doesn't see a break. |
I feel like I had a very mediocre year. I believe just being able to go through it is one way to get better. I've been through more situations. That's all going to help. |
I had a shot, and J.C. made some good pitches. |
I just saw their people back and decided to lay one down. Although I've popped up three of my last four, this one worked. |
I learned how to handle failure, I learned how to manage it. Confidence is something I've always had and it's something I'll probably never lose. I really feel like I'm in a different position now. I'm way more prepared. |
I need both degrees to operate my company. |
I want to get stronger during the offseason, ... but home runs to me right now are not an important part of my game. |
I want to own my own VW shop one day. |
