I don't have to prove myself to anyone. People know what I'm capable of. I've spent a long time in this game.
I don't like golf. That's too boring for me. I need something with more energy and more enjoyable.
Nobody likes to lose. I'm not going to be happy and excited about that, but I'm still going to be me because I know from the bottom of my heart there's going to be a next game; maybe try to win the next game.

In baseball, nothing surprises me. I understand this is a business.
When I was a kid, I liked to enjoy the game. I play good when I enjoy the game. If I get too serious in the game, I won't play the way I'm supposed to play. That's the way I am, always. I like to be happy, and I have a lot of energy.
