I don't want to get in trouble here, but the All-Star Game shouldn't count for anything. It should just be for fun.

I play to have fun. I play to win. I play for my teammates.

There's not much you can complain about - you're a Major League Baseball player; you're getting paid to play a game. People want to be you, wish they could do what you do. There are some complaints here and there, but there really aren't any significant ones.

I don't want the All-Star Game to be a one-time thing.

We don't just say this every spring training - 'Playoffs, World Series.' You've got to do it.

The game is nine innings. It's not two, three. It doesn't matter if it's the fifth through the seventh or the seventh through the ninth. It's not two innings - it's nine.
