Q: One hitter you look forward to facing?
A: David Ortiz. He always comes up with big hits and is a tough out.
Q: How would you describe your mound temperament?
A: Very focused, very competitive, fierce, not ever giving in.
Q: Fierce in what way?
A: Lower my hat, get the ball, go to work.
Q: Would you say you’re fearless?
A: Yeah.
Q: What’s it like hitting 100 mph on the radar gun?
A: It feels good. I’d rather throw it hard and have an idea where it’s going.
Q: What’s it like when you feel dominant out there?
A: A feeling you can’t describe. To know somebody 60 feet, six inches
away wants to hit the ball as hard as he can right back at you. Maybe
I got something you can’t hit.
Q: Switching to the bullpen?
A: Any way I can help is something I’m willing to try. It’s been fun
my last couple of outings.
Q: Your father [Harlan] is paralyzed on the left side from polio and
raised you and your sister as a single parent.
A: Not one day in my 20 years has he complained about anything. He does
everything everybody else does and has just enjoyed life.
Q: He’d play catch with you even though he was wheelchair-bound.
A: He caught and threw with the same hand.
Q: What did you do with your $1.1 million signing bonus?
A: What makes this so satisfying for me is to be able to call him and,
if he wants something, to be able to provide it for him.
Q: What is your [15-month-old] son Karter like?
A: If you’re having a rough one and you go home, he brightens up your day.
When you see him run to you and smile and give him a hug, it’s the best
thing.
Q: Are you married?
A: No. I’ve got a girlfriend.
Q: She takes care of Karter?
A: Back in Lincoln [Nebraska].
Q: You’ve been to Yankee Stadium?
A: I saw it [Wednesday]. I was in New York to get a passport. I got to
walk around a little bit. I had goose bumps the whole time.
Q: Did you see the monuments?
A: I walked out to the bullpen and saw them. It’s something you can’t
describe. It’s an honor being part of the Pinstripes.
Q: What advice did Roger Clemens give you?
A: Be yourself. Take care of your body. Work hard.
Q: You and Phil Hughes have different personalities.
A: Phil’s more quiet, kind of a laid-back guy. I’m an animated, funny guy.
I don’t take life too seriously. You never know when this thing can be
taken away from you.
Q: Favorite comedian?
A: Jamie Foxx.
Q: What New York things do you want to see?
A: Radio City Music Hall. I’m a big music guy. My dad sang at weddings.
I sang in high school. Music is an expression of people’s self.
Q: What do you sing?
A: Ballads . . . pretty much anything.
Q: Ever want to be a singer?
A: No. I just did it for fun.
Q: What do you know about the Winnebago tribe?
A: My uncle [Keith] and aunt [Lisa] still live on the reservation.
Q: Where is it located?
A: Two hours north of Lincoln, 20 minutes south of the South Dakota border.
Q: How proud are you of your heritage?
A: Very proud. To be able to have kids on the reservation who know there is
a chance. You have to be patient and work hard and somebody will notice.
Q: Boyhood idol?
A: Chipper Jones.
Q: One of your prized possessions was a Bomber jacket.
A: I thought if you didn’t have one, you weren’t a cool kid. I got a
North Carolina Bomber jacket and thought it was the greatest thing
since sliced bread.
Q: Watching Nebraska football in Lincoln?
A: Unbelievable is the only word to describe it. The whole state shuts
down on football Saturdays. Just to see so much red in the place . . .
you can literally feel your feet shaking.
Q: Favorite Christmas?
A: The first time I ever got a Sega Genesis.
Q: How old were you?
A: Eight or nine. And it was a white Christmas!
Q: You worked in the maintenance department cleaning restrooms and
grooming fields after high school.
A: 7:30-to-4:30 every day. It’s something I had to do to take care of my
family.
Q: What did you make?
A: Eight bucks an hour, maybe. It puts things in perspective, especially
now doing the things I’m doing. I took a little different path than
everybody else.
Q: Three dinner guests.
A: Martin Luther King; Babe Ruth; Roger Clemens.
Q: Best piece advice from your father.
A: Believe in yourself.
Q: How often do you speak to him?
A: Every day.
Q: How often does he tell you to “knock ’em dead?”
A: Every outing. “Go get ’em” or “Knock ’em dead.”
Q: Favorite childhood memory?
A: The first time being selected for a traveling baseball team when I was nine.
Q: Favorite movie?
A: “The Last Samurai.”
Q: Favorite actor?
A: Adam Sandler.
Q: Favorite actress?
A: Jessica Biel. (謎之聲...跟隊長搶嗎XDXD)
Q: Favorite meal?
A: Steak.
Q: What drives you?
A: My family. They’re first and foremost in my life.
Q: What about the doubters who said you were too big?
A: You always gotta play with a little chip on your shoulder. Without
doubters, a lot of people wouldn’t be where they are today.
Q: What would you like to say to Yankee fans?
A: I’m gonna wear it on my sleeve. I’m gonna give it everything I got,
day in and day out.
