The Kids Competed For A Full 32

I Love The Game, It's The Greatest Game On Earth, That's Why I Can't Understand All Of This Talk About Trying To Make The Game Better. People Talk About The High Strike Zone And Changing This And That. Why? To Speed Up The Game? That's The Beauty Of Baseball. There Is No Time Element.

For Me To Become The Highest Paid Player In The Franchise, It Was Something I Didn't Anticipate. But I'm Glad. I Like Playing For Cincinnati.

People Saw Me As Being Heroic, But I Was No More Heroic Than I Was With Other Injuries I Had, Like The Lacerated Kidney I Suffered During The 1990 World Series. It's Just That People Haven't Known Anyone With A Lacerated Kidney, But Everyone Can Relate To Someone With Cancer.

The Kids Competed For A Full 32 Minutes. We Want The Kids To Compete On Every Possession.

If You're Feeling Pressure, Then You Shouldn't Be Here.
