Carlos Beltran Time Quotations

When he hit the ball, the first thing that I did was freeze. The second thing that I did was take a step back. And when it was time for me to come forward, it was too late for me.

I wasn't pressing. I just wasn't getting hits. I had a good spring. It was just time for me to come through.

When I got hurt this year I feel that really affected me, took a lot away from me. I wasn't able to steal bases. Every time I hit the ball in the hole I wasn't able to run. I just couldn't run. It's kind of frustrating because you feel like you would have done a better job. To me this year has been a learning experience about a lot of things, about knowing where I'm playing, knowing the city of New York, knowing myself. I feel good with it.

I took a step back and when it was time for me to come forward - too late.

It will turn around sooner or later. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter how hard you hit the ball. You need to get results. At the same time, I know I've been hitting balls hard right at people. I'm just going to continue to do my thing. As long as we continue to win, I just know my time will come.

I'm just waiting for the time when it's going to come together. I've been waiting for a while.

Im just waiting for the time when its going to come together, ... Ive been waiting for a while.

I don't know if I've ever done that in my career. I wasn't getting hits and it was time for me to come through.
