I always enjoy my stay here in Canada. It's one of those places where you just feel comfortable.
I would enjoy that. I think it would be great for both of us.
It was pretty tough, but I'm glad I made the decision and I'm proud of it. I'm very proud to play for the USA team. I plan to enjoy it.
The game of baseball has been my whole life. It's given me everything I have. I didn't think this was better for the game, the growth of the game, I wouldn't be playing. I felt that I owe this to the game. I've made the right decision. I'm very proud to be playing for the USA team. I plan to enjoy it.
I think we're very fortunate to be in the position we're in considering how many opportunities early on we really let go.
I think being on the field every day is a strong requirement (for MVP), and doing it from both sides of the field,
I think it was the last one he threw. I'm glad he threw one. He had us talking to each other, and really nothing was said that was helpful.

Last time I was here, things went really bad, not only for me, but for my team. And I look at it as an opportunity to start a new year, a new chapter. And ironically enough, I come up with a game-winning hit in this situation, where last year, I was the biggest goat, and today I get to be a hero. There's ... a lesson to be learned, I guess.
Last time here, I was the biggest goat. Today, I get to be the hero.
I said it once that I wasn't playing and then at the end I said I was playing. But between that was ... speculation, back and forth, which I thought was ridiculous.
We don't want to put ourselves in the situation we did last year. We put ourselves in way too big of a hole, and it was a miracle that we were able to come back and win the division. We know every loss in April shows up in September and late August.
