Jake Peavy Uniform Quotations

Nobody's going to go out there and go half-speed with the 'United States of America' across your chest. The boys are taking a lot of pride in putting this uniform on. Obviously you can't be foolish and maybe cost your season or your team with an injury. You've got to be more respectful than that. But if I feel like you can go full bore for three innings, I'm going to do it.

I've never had a better feeling in my life. When Team USA took the field, it was the coolest thing I have ever done. I can't even tell you what went through my head. It didn't hit me until then. The national anthem, just putting on the uniform and being down in the bullpen, was just awesome.

I've never had a better feeling in my life. I wanted to win with everything I had within me. I can't tell you the amount of pride you have when you put that uniform on with all of America watching.
