If I'm shifted two steps toward third base and the ball goes up the middle, people say I have no range to my left. That's why those statistics aren't accurate. You're changing for every batter, sometimes with every pitch. You really can't make one statistic for every shortstop. You have to go by what you see.

I always take criticism as a challenge. It's the way I've always looked at it.
Derek Jeter
Image
It took him 75 steps to get from third to home. I thought we were going to have to go out there and help him. A lot of players start thinking double then maybe wind up with a triple because the outfielder slips.

Surround yourself with good people. People who are going to be honest with you and look out for your best interests.
Derek Jeter

I go into every game thinking I'm going to be the hero. I have to, or I wouldn't enjoy it.

If you're going to play at all, you're out to win. Baseball, board games, playing Jeopardy, I hate to lose.
