Jason Giambi

I've learned that you have to take responsibility for yourself in this game and lead yourself through it.

I'm still playing the game, having a great time.

No matter what players say or people say, you want to be liked and appreciated, even if you've had a downfall.

This game, it seems when you play it the best, is when you're not really thinking a lot and just reacting and keeping it at its simplest point - just see it and hit it.

I can't get into specifics. Someday, hopefully, I'll be able to.

I know my swing is going to be there. I don't need 600 swings in the cage; I know where it's at.

I had fun coming every day and playing in front of a packed house - it was exciting.

You get to the plate and nothing is going through your mind. You see the ball, you see the seams.

As a younger player, you always kind of play with that fear of failure.

The biggest thing as I have gotten older is the calmness that's come over me.
