I was always an MMO fan. I'm playing 'World of Warcraft' in the clubhouse, and J.D. Drew and Coco Crisp saw me playing. They came over and got interested, and they wound up creating accounts.

It's September. We're playing to win,

I had the perfect job for a gamer. From February to October, I'd get up at 7 in the morning with nothing to do but play games until I had to be at the park around 1 or 2 o'clock. When I got back after the game, I played until 3 or 4 in the morning.

I wanted to create a multibillion dollar company that lets me go out and let us go out and change the world and create a Skin Cancer Awareness Center that costs a quarter a billion dollars.

Before I pitch any game, from spring training to Game 7 of the World Series, I'm scared to death.

I've had teammates I didn't get along with, who hasn't? I've never had a teammate call me a bad guy, while he was my teammate, and if he did when I was gone what kind of teammate was he anyway?
