When you get up on that stage, you're nervous. Your hands are shaking, your palms are sweaty. It's hard to keep control.

I started shaking when I got up there. I started getting nervous then, when I saw him.

Your palms don't get as sweaty in center field as they do at first base when a big left-hander is hitting.

He must have spent it shaking hands at the Back Porch.

Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands, / Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee? / Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.

I'm always nervous before I go on stage, but once I'm out there everything is great and it's my favorite place to be.
