You're not allowed to write about me if you haven't seen 'The Shawshank Redemption.' See it and then get back to me.

I don't really think about the runs too much. I mean, if we get, like, a five-run lead, then I'll start to pitch according to that.

I play to see what I can accomplish. I don't play for fun. I play to see how good I can be.

I used to get so nervous and upset at stuff... I'd always be angry.

Everyone watches everyone pitch. If they're doing good, you're trying to take something out of them. I've taken something from probably every average to above-average pitcher I've ever played with - what they do. You see what they do and how you can put that into your game.

I remember bringing some of my other friends to our table, and everyone at our table would look at them and ask me, 'What are you doing? Why'd you bring him?' It was annoying high school stuff that still goes on now. My high school was really bad.
