add baseball compare game great hand home
I think the game was out of hand before that (home run). It doesn't (mean a great deal) because I don't have anything to compare it to. I'm not a baseball historian. I don't go home and add it up. I'll add it all up after I retire.
contract couple dedicate last percent proud retire safe sure willing
I'm willing to dedicate myself for another couple of years. It's safe to say I'm proud to be able to retire a Dodger. I'm 99.9 percent sure this is the last contract of my career.
fantastic seen
That was a fantastic at-bat. That's what you try to do - I've seen him do that before.

I handled it all right. I'm tired of talking about it. I'm OK.
mvp trophies championship
I can't be No. 1 with an MVP trophy. I could be No. 1 with the championship ring and the championship trophy on my fireplace.
cowboy guy personality
I like the laid-back, polite, respectful courteous personality cowboys have. Guys almost lay down their life for you if they're your friends. You exist on a handshake rather than a signed contract.

I'm a Mormon. I don't do a lot of the off-the-field activities that athletes are known to do. And I guess I've created a world that is unlike the typical world of a professional athlete.
tired kids home
I'm tired of leaving my wife at home with no nanny and no cook to take care of four kids by herself.
