It's tougher when you're established. Before, I'd see 13, 14, 15 pitches that I could drive in a game. Now, I see one, two or three, so I have to be better.

More quotes by Alex Rodriguez
I've done a lot of growing up and realized a lot of things.
Alex Rodriguez
I’m fighting for my life, I have to defend myself. If I don’t defend myself, no one else will.
Alex Rodriguez
It is hard to ignore that is reality. But, at the same time, it still comes down to sound baseball decisions, farm systems and then execution on the field by the players. There are a lot of components to that (other) than just saying it is the highest salary.
Alex Rodriguez
I don't care if people like me or not. Respect is more important.
Alex Rodriguez
I think it's just getting comfortable in New York City, comfortable in your own skin.
Alex Rodriguez
This is how I define grace: youre on the main stage, and it looks like it has been rehearsed 100 times, everything goes so smoothly. Thats where I get my confidence and success, from knowing that I have an edge because I know Im prepared.
Alex Rodriguez
Leadership is a role you have to earn in order to be effective.
Alex Rodriguez
We have a responsibility not just as atheletes, but as members of society to treat people well. To do things the right way.
Alex Rodriguez
I'm not impulsive at all - except about buying clothes. That's my biggest weakness.
Alex Rodriguez
I want to be known as a good major-leaguer, and good major-leaguers work to become good.
Alex Rodriguez
Winners live in the present tense. People who come up short are consumed with future or past. I want to be living in the now.
Alex Rodriguez
Back then it was a different culture. It was very loose. I was young. I was stupid.
Alex Rodriguez
I just don't see the light. Where is the light? What am I in this for?
Alex Rodriguez
Why do people sing Take Me Out to The Ballgame when they're already there?
Alex Rodriguez
There's no place like New York. And I found out that until you go through it for a season, you really don't know it.
Alex Rodriguez
Like I say, it's almost embarrassing to talk about. I don't know if Michael Jordan or Bill Gates or Alexander the Great or anyone is worth this type of money, but that's the market we're in today. That's what Mr. Hicks decided to pay me, and now it's time to pay him back and win a couple championships.
Alex Rodriguez
I like to score and drive in runs more than pay attention to batting average.
Alex Rodriguez
Looks aren't the number one thing. They have to have class, intelligence, then looks. If I was the ugliest SOB in the world it would be a lot easier.
Alex Rodriguez
If my life depended on it - if my daughter's life depended on it - I'd want Mariano Rivera closing. Wouldn't you?
Alex Rodriguez
Playing the game was the easy part. The real work was in the preparation.
