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.

2
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,540
That's something that comes with being a Virginia baseball player.

4
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

5
00:00:20,740 --> 00:00:23,130
if you want to be the best player that you
can be.

6
00:00:23,130 --> 00:00:24,539
You can't let days go to waste.

7
00:00:24,540 --> 00:00:26,920
We're here to work, and we're not wasting any
of that time.

9
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,540
You might come up to the field late at night
and you

10
00:00:30,540 --> 00:00:32,180
kind of hear, like, balls rattling around.

11
00:00:32,180 --> 00:00:34,240
You're like, I wonder who's up here at 11o'clock
at night?

12
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,580
It's somebody who has said, I'm going to go
up to the field.

13
00:00:36,580 --> 00:00:37,480
I'm going to work.

14
00:00:37,489 --> 00:00:38,500
And that's kind of contagious, too.

15
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?

16
00:00:42,510 --> 00:00:44,140
There's a constant push to get better.

17
00:00:44,140 --> 00:00:47,000
There's a constant drive to better the team.

18
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:47,820
This is family.

19
00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:48,740
This is what I'm going to do.

20
00:00:48,740 --> 00:00:49,740
This is how I'm going to help.

00:00:49,740 --> 00:00:52,700

22
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,

23
00:01:00,690 --> 00:01:01,870
they're giving their all for me.

24
00:01:01,870 --> 00:01:03,660
I'm going to give my all for them.

25
00:01:04,740 --> 00:01:06,560
Your best is different than the best.

26
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

27
00:01:11,320 --> 00:01:13,120
person mentally and physically.

28
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,440
And if we have everyone's best within this
group of guys,

29
00:01:17,060 --> 00:01:18,460
we are going to be the best.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

31
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.

32
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

33
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,600
take away is that we did our job.

34
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.

35
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

36
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,000
baseball player.

37
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:49,960
That's the reason why we ultimately chose this
university, because we'll be successful life

38
00:01:49,980 --> 00:01:54,040
after college, life after baseball, I mean,
that's everything.
