crazy player half
It's going to be crazy. I'm guessing when we play against the Dominicans, half the field will be Dominican fans and half will be Puerto Rican fans. With all the big-time players in the World Classic, it's going to be huge.

hit late second step time
When he hit the ball, the first thing that I did was freeze. The second thing that I did was take a step back. And when it was time for me to come forward, it was too late for me.
last relaxed wondering year
When you come to a new place like I did last year for the first time, you're wondering how it's going to be. This year, I feel relaxed and feel great.
team winning goal
My goal is to win. It doesn't matter how I do. I want to do well, but I just want the team to win.

I play because I know I can play the game, so it's their decision whether or not they want to keep me or they wanna trade me. Whatever decision they make, I will understand it.

I know there are a lot of expectations of me, and I will do the best I can.
winning thinking years
I think I can play in the big leagues 10 or 15 years. But more important to me is winning-win, make the playoffs.
hard-work talking people
I like people talking about me, about my defense or what I'm doing. I like to see that, and that makes me work hard.
thinking one-day want
I was always thinking, 'One day I want to be like Bernie Williams.'
cant-change i-can
I can't change something that I've been all my life. But I can work to express myself and talk more.
hard-work slumps ifs
I learned that I have to work hard every day, that I can't get down if I get in a slump.
want our-family
When you're close to your family, you want to be close to them.
team games trying
Now that I feel 100 percent, I'm looking forward to playing my game the way I want to-getting on base, stealing bases and trying to help the team any way I can.
