mother influence
My mother was the biggest influence on me, without question.
guy used outgoing
I'm not comfortable being that outgoing guy. That's not me. I never used to talk to anybody.
perfect trying
You're not always going to be perfect, but I always try to be.
errors mad ifs
If making an error doesn't make you mad, what's the point? Why put all the work in?
winning numbers goal
I try not to have personal goals. Personal numbers is a mind-set. The only numbers I care about are in the win column.
bats easy be-confident
Obviously, success breeds more confidence. And it's pretty easy to be confident if you're getting a hit almost every time at bat.
circles pressure plates
I don't feel any pressure when I'm up there at the plate. I feel it when I'm in the on-deck circle, but when I'm in the box, it's just me and the pitcher, and I get zoned in.
came control goes happens hit time trying
I'm just trying to hit it, that's it. I was told a long time ago when I first came up, we're producers, not directors. All you can do is hit it, you can't control where it goes and if it happens to go somewhere, fine.
