America brought us the baseball cap; it's one of my favorite hats.

Even though I was never a Yankee fan until I put on the uniform, when you think about the deep history of this organization, you always knew what the Yankees represented.

I may not have been the best Yankee to put on the pinstripes, but I am the proudest.

The only difference between me and those other great Yankees is my skin color.

There were a couple of things I needed to do while I was in New York. One was to have a pizza pie, one was to get a tattoo... and the other was to get a Yankees hat.

I feel like I've been a Yankee my whole life.

I used to think that I wanted to be a hat maker, but I don't think that would have worked out.

To pitch a perfect game wearing pinstripes at Yankee Stadium, it's unbelievable. Growing up a Yankee fan, to come out here and make history, it really is a dream come true.
