I know what my job is. I know what I've got to do. I've got to keep getting better.
My dad taught me how to play. He was a great amateur player in Curacao.
I love taking hits away from guys and seeing their reaction.
You play for the team, you don't play for the fans.
Injuries are injuries, everybody has them. You play with it. I don't make excuses.
Every year I try to make adjustments and learn.
I just have to prove to myself, I don't have to prove to fans.
My focus is to stay up the middle. If I'm a little early I'll hit it to left, if I'm a little late, I'll hit it to right.
People think the leadoff spot is a big deal. I tell people you're going to lead off the first inning, and after that, you can be a No. 4 hitter or No. 3 hitter.
I just go out there and try to help my teammates any way I can. They are on me a lot to be in the lineup and do stuff for the team, but sometimes it's just...frustrating.
I want to be more consistent. I wanna get hits. I wanna get my average back up where people think I can hit.
