00:00:03.680 --> 00:00:10.880
Baseball, it's all about challenging yourself
and doing your job and what's expected of you.

00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:14.540
That's something that comes with being a Virginia baseball player.

00:00:14.820 --> 00:00:16.820
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:20.740
With us being at this level of baseball, you're
going to have to do extra work on your own

00:00:20.740 --> 00:00:23.130
if you want to be the best player that you
can be.

00:00:23.130 --> 00:00:24.539
You can't let days go to waste.

00:00:24.540 --> 00:00:26.920
We're here to work, and we're not wasting any
of that time.

00:00:27.200 --> 00:00:28.480
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:30.540
You might come up to the field late at night
and you

00:00:30.540 --> 00:00:32.180
kind of hear, like, balls rattling around.

00:00:32.180 --> 00:00:34.240
You're like, I wonder who's up here at 11o'clock
at night?

00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:36.580
It's somebody who has said, I'm going to go
up to the field.

00:00:36.580 --> 00:00:37.480
I'm going to work.

00:00:37.489 --> 00:00:38.500
And that's kind of contagious, too.

00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:42.510
You say, well, what am I not doing to get better
at 11:00 at night, too?

00:00:42.510 --> 00:00:44.140
There's a constant push to get better.

00:00:44.140 --> 00:00:47.000
There's a constant drive to better the team.

00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:47.820
This is family.

00:00:47.820 --> 00:00:48.740
This is what I'm going to do.

00:00:48.740 --> 00:00:49.740
This is how I'm going to help.

00:00:49.740 --> 00:00:52.700

00:00:55.980 --> 00:01:00.680
When you have these guys to your left to your right
and you can look at them and say, you know,

00:01:00.690 --> 00:01:01.870
they're giving their all for me.

00:01:01.870 --> 00:01:03.660
I'm going to give my all for them.

00:01:04.740 --> 00:01:06.560
Your best is different than the best.

00:01:06.570 --> 00:01:11.320
The best is all about comparison.Your best
is based on you, and what you can do as a

00:01:11.320 --> 00:01:13.120
person mentally and physically.

00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:16.440
And if we have everyone's best within this
group of guys,

00:01:17.060 --> 00:01:18.460
we are going to be the best.

00:01:18.460 --> 00:01:20.040
[MUSIC PLAYING]

00:01:22.300 --> 00:01:25.960
We have this time here, we have this time
now, and we want to make the best of it.

00:01:25.960 --> 00:01:31.020
When we leave Disharoon Park as this current
team, I think the main thing that we want to

00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:33.600
take away is that we did our job.

00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:38.660
Baseball is a game, and, I mean, few people
are lucky to play it for a living.

00:01:38.660 --> 00:01:42.520
But you can learn life from the game of baseball,
and that's what I've been doing, being a Virginia

00:01:42.520 --> 00:01:44.000
baseball player.

00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:49.960
That's the reason why we ultimately chose this
university, because we'll be successful life

00:01:49.980 --> 00:01:54.040
after college, life after baseball, I mean,
that's everything.
