chance charles country dying guys hard johnson magic michael opportunity people stand
People are dying in wars, and I get an opportunity to play for my country. It's not that hard of a decision. You see Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, Magic Johnson and all those guys stand on a podium. I have the chance to do that.
arguably both guys history players top
Those guys are legends. You can't say enough for those guys and what they've done for baseball. Both of those guys are arguably in the top 10 players in the history of the game.
bat course easy guys numbers particular patient pitches pressure stuff swing tough
If we can swing the bat and be particular about what pitches to swing at, and be patient and stuff like that, I think we can put some pressure on some people. You look at the numbers these guys put over through the course of the year, there's no easy out in there. That makes it tough on everybody.
air balls couple guys home solid swinging tried
Guys weren't up there swinging for home runs. We tried to make solid contact. We got a couple of balls in the air and they went out.
guys intensity pick round second spring training week
Now that the second round is here, I think the intensity is going to pick up. Guys are a week into spring training basically, so I think it's going to be a little more exciting, a little more fun.
base behind coming good guys hit home key
Good placement. The key is we were able to get some guys on base and the guys coming up behind them hit home runs.
care guys relationship worry
I don't worry about other people's numbers. That's for you guys to come to that conclusion. You guys know me. Your relationship with me is what I care about.
damn good guys looking people speculate touch
They can't look at mine. They can't look at mine. You all know good and damn well that what you see is what you get. You can look at other people and speculate all you want. But you guys know from looking at me that I didn't touch a thing.
again awesome chance guys results treat yes
To be around the guys who said yes to this was a treat in itself. I got a chance to know different personalities, and I think it was pretty awesome that we were able to do this. The results weren't what we would like to have, but I would do it again any time.
alone beyond came cares couple dad fever goes high home house privilege remember running sat school trusted wife
It goes way beyond the doctor-patient privilege with him. He really cares about you. I got to know who he was when I was in high school and my dad trusted the family. I remember two years ago in Cincinnati, I was home alone and was running a fever of 105 around midnight. I called him and he and his wife (Hilary) came over to the house and sat with me for a couple of hours.
counted medical people says staff work
Just being able to go out there day in and day out where a lot of people counted me out says a lot for the work I put into it, and for the medical staff and the team.

Over the course of the season, you'll get on a streak where you get a couple, but the main thing for me is to try to get my hits.

It didn't really bother me. It just tightened up a little bit. That was it.

We were able to get some runs. That helps out Ramon.
