Interview with a Run Producer

From an interview with Adrian Gonzalez, via the Associated Press recap of Friday night’s Red Sox win over Toronto:

“It’s just guys in front of me are getting on base and giving me opportunities every time,” Gonzalez said. “RBIs are not a personal thing.”

This guy might be my new favorite player, not just because he’s driven in 14 runs during the Red Sox’s nine-game winning streak, but because he realizes that the team’s 83 runs scored in that stretch are the more impressive and meaningful number.
