I wasn't looking for it. I was just trying to hit it hard somewhere. It happens sometimes.

I think I'm swinging the bat a little better than last year. This year I'm short and quick. Last year I was horrible.

No, if you believe it. I feel happy, not because of how I played but because of how my teammates played.

I was just trying to put the ball in play. I don't think about the numbers. I just want to play hard and do the little things.

Everybody can have one great year. I've got to prove I can do it again.
