Mark Teixeira
Education is very important to me, as is helping children.
Mark Teixeira
If I can be a good person and help a few non-believers or even help people that are believers but need a little help along the way, I think that's a job that I take very seriously.

I enjoy spending time with my family. And when my family's not around, when I'm on the road, a lot of sleep. I get my rest. I understand how important my job is and how important rest is to that job. I'm pretty boring.
Mark Teixeira
I've waited a long time to be part of a franchise like this [the Yankees].
