I just go out every day and try to work hard.
I try to work hard. I try to set a good example. I don't look at it as though I've got to be a leader. I just try to behave the way I think I should behave. If that results in a leadership role, great.
I think I just learned that God has a plan for all of us, and I work hard and do all the things I can, but at the same time, His will is perfect; and me trying to control it, it's not going to work.
Ortiz left a fastball up and away from me. I worked the count to 3-2 to see some more pitches and finally got one I could handle and drive.
