We can't worry about the future, just try to be the best person we can today.

That's what a lot of people say, especially in college, it looked like I'm lackadaisical out there, like I'm not really paying attention. If I'm always tense, I'm going to be overthinking the game. I try to just go with the flow.

I didn't grow up in the worst neighborhood. It wasn't the best either.

My parents are people who like to stay to themselves. They're quiet. They raised me not to be boastful about anything we do.

I always feel happy for my teammates, but I'm not going to be the one at the top of the dugout yelling.

I'm trying to see, in high school or college, I've never been like, 'Rah! Rah!' kind of guy. It's always been just, 'All right.'

I've always been calm, as long as I can remember.

I just happen to know how to hit a baseball and throw a baseball. But I probably couldn't go into somebody else's job and be as good as they are but no one's praising them about it.

People treat us and they put us on this pedestal like we're so much better human beings than them because we play a professional sport.

Obviously, I want to win, but at the same time, at the end of the day, it's a game and that's what I'm going to treat it as.
