We had to get a win for him to celebrate. I'm very sure before he retires he's going to shoot for that No. 1 record, because he always wants to be on top.
This is something I can do for my country. Definitely, I want to participate in this. It's big for me and I'm pretty sure that's the same way a lot of guys look at it.
I've had Jimmy for the last five years hitting behind me, and I know he's going to click on and drive me in, so there's no need for me to put pressure on myself or chase a ball out of the strike zone. Believe me he's getting hot, so watch out.
You don't want to get caught up thinking along with him, because then, he'll sneak something by you. You have to make sure the ball is up and put your best swing on it. He did a real good job tonight keeping the ball down.
I figure if he's going to use me, he's going to use me when he needs me. And that's what he did. In a key situation, for a game-winning RBI or to tie the game, or something like that. that's it. I just wanted to make sure I was ready.
If something happens to me tomorrow, I'm going to go to Heaven, and that's for sure because God's promised to us in the Bible.
There's no need for me to put pressure on myself or try to chase a ball out of the strike zone. If I take the walk, I know he's going to drive me in like he has the last couple of weeks. Believe me, he's getting hot, so watch out.
I'm pretty sure he's going to shoot for No. 1, ... Knowing him, it's going to be real tough for him to walk out of this game. He's a future Hall of Famer.
