Derek Jeter Time Quotations

I always used to get in trouble for talking too much. When it was time for parent-teacher conferences, I remember that I was always embarrassed about what my parents would hear about me!

Through time you learn from your experiences. I think I've learned to deal with people a little bit better over time. That in particular has developed a little bit.

Oh, yeah, just because of the moment. You know, it's not the first time that I heard it. It's just I was so proud. It was just the first day back home.

I don't have to sell Rocket on playing in New York. He's had success here and he enjoyed his time here.

He has been big. Today was as wild as he has been, and he still found a way. He gives us an opportunity to win every time he goes out on the mound.

He's been doing it every time out. We missed him when he was out, and now he's healthy and he's picking up where he left off.

We never talked about it, never had to challenge ourselves any more than usual. We wanted to play well and win. We felt we had the best team, so every time we played, we thought we should win.

Those are situations we need to come through in. Those are big. This time of year, especially, you've got to take advantage.

This time of year, ... you're playing on adrenaline anyway.

The Rocket is close to his family. He really enjoys spending a lot of time with his kids. I think that's part of the reason why when he came back, he came back to Houston. He has the luxury of being at home.

It's going to be weird. He has that voice that tells you it's Yankee Stadium. You don't have to see what's going on. All you have to do is hear that voice. Every time he introduces your name, that voice -- it's something that never gets old.

In the end, it was fun. I would recommend it to anyone that has the opportunity next time it comes around. It was a fun experience, right up until tonight.

I guess I was due then. Every time is a different situation. Those are big ... you've got to find ways to come through. Those are situations you have to come through because two-out hits are pretty clutch.

I don't know how many balls he's hit down the first-base line, ... I don't know when the last time was.

He's always tough. It seems like his knuckleball gets tougher every time we face him.

I assumed runs would be tough (to score) just because of the time of year. Pitching is going to get the best of hitting right now. It's tough on hitters when you're facing a new pitcher every time up.

I assumed runs would be tough, just because of the time of year.

I don't need to sell Rocket on coming here. He knows what it's like. He enjoyed his time here.

You can't take any more time. Adams gets down the line pretty good. He hit it slow; a high chopper. There was no time to flip to Robbie.
