I sort of missed one big thing, to touch first base. I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history. ↗

I tell you what, I was so shocked because I didn't think the ball had enough to get out. It's an absolutely incredible feeling. I can honestly say I did it. ↗

I think it puts baseball back on the map as a sport. It's America's pastime and just look at everyone coming out to the ballpark. It has been an exciting year. ↗

I touched Roger's bat and held it to my heart. My bat will lie next to his. I'm damn proud of that. ↗

I wish that every player could feel what I've felt in visiting ballparks. The receptions I've received, it's blown me away. It's absolutely remarkable. ↗

I'm not here to discuss the past... I'm here to be positive. ↗

I've been thinking about the record since I reached the fifty plateau. But you think about it and then you let it go because you can't waste many brain cells on hours thinking about it. ↗
