What is your most memorable playing experience as a Salt Lake Bee?
"After Adam Pavkovich falling on his face during a walk-off celebration in 2007, it has to be our 21-1 start in 2008. That was pretty cool. We would walk on the field and no matter how many runs the opponent would score; we knew we were going to win no matter what. That was a pretty cool first month of a season. Seeing guys get called up... you know, I was lucky to see a lot of guys get called up. It was pretty special. I can go through and every guy that got called up (during my three years with the Angels), I can tell you where we were at, where I was at, when they got called up."  

What about the Bees/Salt Lake City do you miss the most? 
"Salt Lake City... I would have to say would be The Bayou, postgame dinner at The Bayou with the crew. And then about the Bees, I would say, during my three years there, you could get to the ballpark at noon, one o'clock or two o'clock and you were never going to be the first one there, if that was even possible. You always wanted to be there early to hang out in the clubhouse. The clubhouse camaraderie was like no other team that I've been a part of and that's the truth. I've played on a lot of teams and it was hands down the best. It was a good group of guys. I only got there in 2005, but the crew that was there in 2005, everyone deserved to be up moved up to Triple-A and we all stayed together pretty much for the whole three years. All four years that I was with the Angels, we were all pretty much there together which was cool, it was pretty special for me. The clubhouse, the staff, the front office, everybody was really accommodating. It made it fun coming to the clubhouse because you knew something was going to happen, someone was going to be playing a joke or doing this or doing that. That was pretty cool.
