It's good when you win. It just makes it a little more gratifying, that's all it does, ... I can hit a baseball. I've never had any problems doing that. I'm trying to do it when we win games.
After that at-bat I was spent, ... I got a little tired by like the fifth inning. Your adrenaline is going so hard. I knew that was going to happen. I hung in there as long as I could.
After that at-bat, I was spent, ... I got a little bit tired by the fifth inning. Your adrenaline is going so hard and everybody's cheering for you out there. The team is playing well and you're so hyped up.
It's nice to win, ... I still feel like I'm in the spring training mode. Sometimes I feel really good. Sometimes I feel off balance. Those are things you go through in spring training. I'm trying to put it together in such a short window of time.
The fast ones I'm able to see. The slower ones I'm missing. He challenged me one time too many.
I'm in game mode. This is where I want to be. This is what I envisioned all those months I was working to get my knee back where it needed to be.
I'm not playing baseball anymore after this. The game (isn't) fun anymore.
I'm not seeing the ball any differently, ... I've just been lucky, I guess.
I'm going to keep playing until it blows up. If I have to have a procedure, then I'm done. Finished. That would be it.

(Eckstein's) one of my favorite players ever, ... I told him that he's a gift from God.
Everyone has their time and era, ... In all sports.
I don't think you're going to see me out there this year. That's the reality of the situation.
Why would I have that? I've never had a realistic game number ever in my career. If you're in the lineup, you play. If you're not, you don't.
