The key to hitting a lot of home runs as a player at Kauffman Stadium is that you'd better run into some on the road.

The questions don't happen when you hit 30 homers, right? If you hit 30 home runs, you hit 40 doubles, I don't think anybody questions your conditioning or your offseason program.

The fans love the home runs, the home run competition between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.

I'm the same guy I've always been. I'm the same guy now as when I was hitting 50 home runs. I don't change.

Pitching keeps you in the games. Home runs win the game.

Yesterday's home runs don't win today's games.
