Oh, yeah, I think every time that I come to Fenway, it's really fun.

When I play on the away team, Fenway has, I think it's a really tricky ballpark because that green monster is really close.

But I'm looking forward to play there just because the team and the fans.

Especially for the long season, it's 162, plus playoff, plus all series.

So having a good energy and trying to get the team contagious with your energy, I think is the best part of it.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

The way I play, I play like this because I feel like I get better.

So like I said before, and I said it before, if you play against me, you don't like me, that's fine with me.
