Alex Cintron Quotations

It was unbelievable pressure to win in your home country. It was kind of like playing in a World Series, but you are playing for your country.

Whatever role they need me in, I'll be open to do it. I'm not going to complain about it. I'm in the big leagues, that's what I like. I've been here for a lot of years.

I have to be ready. I am going to do anything they want me to do here. I need to show them what I can do. I'm not going to be thinking that I'm just a bench guy. I have to concentrate like I'm an everyday guy. Every chance I get, I have to show what I can do.

I'm going to a winning team that's looking to repeat, while Arizona was going nowhere.

This one was a changeup. The other one was a slider, both down and in. You never go up expecting to hit the ball out, but I'm a low-ball hitter.

I was thinking it was the same kind of ball.

I was in shock. I was happy, though. (Arizona) didn't have the confidence in myself. They were looking to trade me and I came here to Chicago. It is going to be good for me.

I had a bad day. Everything kind of went wrong for me. Two errors and then my knee.

I think we can breathe and relax a little now. I know I will sleep better knowing we won.

To tell you the truth, I don't know how I hit it out.
