 Matt, can you describe the amount of confidence you have when you walk into the batter's box? You know, I obviously feel good right now with where my swing's at. And you know, my game plan and approach, I feel like I've got a good idea of what I want to do when I go up there. And I'm just trying to execute that on a day-to-day basis and go out there and win pitches. You know, simple as that. Just trying to win as many pitches as I can. How meaningful was the curtain call tonight? It's pretty awesome, you know, to have that moment here with this group of fans on this team and, you know, where this year started for me is pretty special. You mentioned about where this year started, maybe a little bit of a question mark coming over here. Aaron Boone just said, you're now an exclamation point for this team to hear him say that. Just how do you reflect on this year? You know, I really don't, you know, have, I'm kind of at a loss for words for it. You know, I've said it, you know, the first day I was here, I'm just so grateful to be in the clubhouse, to be here with these group of guys. And, you know, I come to the ballpark every day, like just thrilled to be a part of this and to be able to, you know, play like I'm playing and the way our team's playing on a nightly basis, it's a lot of fun. I hope we win. I hope we go out there tomorrow and finish the first half strong and, you know, get a series victory here against Boston. What do you attribute the power to that you've been able to have since you've been here? You know, I don't know. I mean, you know, I've had stretches, you know, in my career, you know, in St. Louis that were, I mean, I don't know if this is comparable to the right word, but, you know, we're, you know, running some homers, pile them up pretty quickly. But, you know, I just really just feel good with where I'm at with my swing and my approach when I get in the box. I just, like I said, I feel like I've got a pretty good game plan when I step in there and I'm just trying to execute it, you know, win each pitch, take each day by day, each at bat by itself and just stacking good days and trying to, you know, keep it wrong. Now, you've talked about you were actually sitting on your couch for a few days after the opt-out. What were you thinking during that time? Did you think anything like this could be possible? No, I mean, you know, you just don't know what's gonna happen, but part of the whole thing for, you know, asking for my release was that I felt like I was at least ready to be a productive major leader again. You know, I don't think anybody would have guessed that I'd get off to the start that I have, but I was confident that I could have good at bats at the big league level with where my swing is. And I played long enough to know that what it feels like when my swing is in a good spot. And I knew that that was the case, but there was no guarantee that, you know, my team was gonna give me a chance. And so, you know, when I was sitting on that couch, I thought, you know, that could use to be it. And I didn't know when I was gonna get a chance, if I was gonna get a chance to play again. So, you know, it's part of why it's been so much fun to be here, because it's just like a new lease on life, you know, from a career in a baseball standpoint. When you got here, they had some injuries, you know, and you said you didn't care what your role was, but do you think that there was a path for you to play this much and contribute as much as you have when everyone got healthy again, like they have? I mean, there's some really good players in this clubhouse. I mean, I didn't know what to, I really didn't, I try not to put too much emphasis on expectations in general and just focus on executing whatever my role was and will continue to be. I mean, that's kind of my mindset is to come to the ballpark every day and execute my role. And, you know, if it's right field DH, or if it's, you know, pinch hitting, just trying to execute that on a day to day basis. And, you know, to answer your question, no, I didn't know what it would look like or how it would fit in. But, you know, I'm just trying to have good at bats when I get my chance.
