I get the fantasy league comment a couple of times a series ... that's pretty cool. They might be rooting for the other team, but if I do well it helps them out. It's kind of cool.

Anytime you give up one run in Coors Field you expect to win a ball game. It just shows how well Myers pitched.

I'm trying to put together quality at-bats and hit the ball hard somewhere.

Every at-bat, I try to hit the ball. I don't like to strike out. I put the ball in play a lot, so I'll take the hits as they come.

I am a big guy and happen to play a position that requires you to be relatively quick. I can't let up now. I have to work every day to be better next year.

I love Denver. There's not a better place to hit, better place to play. I'm a West Coast guy, so I like playing in the NL West.

You never know how your skills are going to play out at the next level. But I knew I had a lot of doubles and I was capable of driving the ball into gaps.

I grew up taking it for granted that missionaries were what American boys grew up to be.

Only in this world do we laugh: in hell, it won't be possible; and in heaven, it won't be proper.

I think that reality TV is so bad. It is a tool by the media to not make people think.

I am damned if I'm going to die before I have unraveled more of the universe

You have got to keep autistic children engaged with the world. You cannot let them tune out.

In your mid-30s, it’s time to start playing guys of compromise. And as you get older, men of bitter compromise.

We could live like counts. ... If all that money is out there, I might as well hack a little on the side and put the novel off.
