Through The Years I've Been Getting Better

The Docf All Started When I Made A Trip To A Local Hospital In The Dominican Republic. I Was Visiting Children Who Had Received Life-saving Heart Care Operations. I Couldn't Help But Think That In Another Life, One Of These Kids Could Be My Own Son. If It Wasn't For Baseball, I May Have Remained In The Dominican Republic And Who Knows Where Life Would Have Taken Me. It Was Then That I Knew That I Had To Use The Gift That I Received, To Play Baseball, To Do Whatever I Could To Give Back.

I'm Not Thinking Home Run, I Just Want To Put A Good Swing On The Ball. When You Go Looking For Home Runs, You Get Off Of Your Swing. So You Don't Think Of Homers When You Go Up To The Plate.

I'm Going To Be Done When I've Decided That I'm Done.

I'm Just Trying To Work Hard Every Day, Trying To Be A Better Player And One Day, To Be Right There With Them, One Of Those Special Hitters.

I'm An Easy Person To Get Along With. Even When I Struggle, I Have The Same Attitude.
