The fans know and the Cardinals know that I want to be a Cardinal for my whole career. I love this city. The way that this city has embraced me and my family.
It's been pretty tough the last week. I'm dealing with it. It has been getting worse as the game goes on. It was pretty tough today because we had a day game after a night game. You're playing twice in less than 10 hours.
I would say it's the best base hit I've ever had in my career,
Whatever happens at the end of the day, as long as I glorify His name, that's what it's all about.
Mike Matheny, Fernando Vina, Edgar Renteria, Mark McGwire and Darryl Kile... before he died. Those guys took me under their wing and taught me the way to play the game the right way.
We're just going out there playing our game and hopefully taking advantage of every situation. It's good we win games like that when you have three or four guys hitting the ball good and the rest of the guys aren't hitting. I would love to see what happens when everybody is hitting the ball.
I trust that I can hit a fastball, that I can hit any pitch they throw to me.
