I felt it cramp up on me. I tried to start over and regroup, but I just stopped before I hurt it more. I thought maybe I'd pull it if I kept going. Getting up and walking off myself was a good sign. I haven't had many problems with my legs.

I just felt like I presented a good enough case where it would be thrown out altogether, but to get it reduced to one day does prove something to me, ... If it wasn't for all of the prior incidents I've been involved with in my career, I don't think I would have gotten any games.

I'm a big believer in staying with what's hot, ... It isn't about what a person feels, it's about what's working. We're riding Jason right now, where last year they rode me, and earlier this year, we rode A-Rod. That's the way this team is set up.
