That was awesome. They cheered more for Puerto Rico than they did the Mets. I thought this was supposed to be a Mets town?

The Lord gave me the ability to play baseball. The two-year contract takes me to 49, and I don’t believe He will forsake me now. I think I’ll make it. Of course, I have to...

I’m sure everything is going to be all right. You don’t want it to happen, but it happened and it’s behind us. As a professional, you shouldn’t take anything personal. What happens on the field...

This Week in Baseball.

The park is short to right-center field, and that’s my power.

The wind brought it back in.

Hey all of those old hairdos are back in style now,

I don’t need to wait for someone to tell me it’s a holiday or a day to eat turkey. I eat turkey almost every day. I don’t need to wait to buy something for someone.

Our fans just want to be a part of it. I told him to just go out there and wave, embrace it. You don’t want to be at odds with the fans. I guess they...

Anytime you get hit by a 95 mph fastball, it’s going to hurt for 12 hours.

There are no magic pills.

I think I did a good job for them. I think they should bring me back.

He’s the best at what he does. The day you stop learning is the day to go home.

Physically, he’s going to be OK. Mentally, we will help him overcome anything.

It feels good to know I am wanted.

You have to do things other people aren’t willing to do. There are a lot of things written in baseball that are sometimes wrong.

That’s a really great question. For me, it doesn’t make a difference what they do in the stands. You can overcome anything as long as you concentrate.

Why not? They signed me here for two years.

You can’t expect him to do the same thing as last year. He’s going to grow as a player.

It won’t be the last home run I hit. I want to hit one when I’m 50. God gave me the great gift to play the game of baseball, and I want to play until...

That won’t be the last one I hit. I want to hit one in my 50s.

I don’t think we should overtake [just] the Braves. We’ve got to win more; we’re got to beat everybody. I mean, they’re a great ball club, a great organization. You have to beat them on...

I’m not worried about records. I’m planning to play for a long time.

I’d be lying to you if I said we didn’t talk about it, but it’s over. Things went smoothly yesterday. It’ll be the same thing today.

This is special, but we want to go all the way. We’ve got to continue winning.

What can you say? You take a shower and go home.

It tastes nasty, but it’s so good for you and 100 per cent natural. That’s all that I care about.

I’m sure when I finish this contract, I’m going to play another year. Maybe two or three more. Who knows? Even if I don’t play tomorrow, it’s been a great ride. I’m grateful for it.

That won’t be the last home run I hit, and I hope I hit one when I’m 50.

I’ve fallen and I can’t get up.

We are getting good hitting and pitching, but we have a long season ahead.

If you hit one when you’re 50, you’re still the oldest one to do it, … It’s not like I’m not going to hit another home run for the rest of my career.

You’ll see, he’s going to lose that (record).

What nature makes is good for you.

I know that Carlos is going to play a lot. Maybe I’ll play one day a week, do some pinch hitting and help out in the clubhouse.

I’ve told you guys I don’t believe in age; I don’t worry about age.

We owe ourselves to the fans. Go out there and be embraced. Wave your hand and accept it, because you hit a home run and they’re happy for us.
