【职业兴趣】A baseball player’s career
Many people ask me how long I'm going to play baseball.
That's good question.
To tell the truth,
it's hard for me to predict how long I'll keep playing,
but I'd like to keep going as long as I'm healthy
and can help my team win.
I'm 35 now,
and I feel great.
The knee injury Isuffered last year is completely healed.
It feels like I could play for four or five more years.
Of course, once the season starts,
that could change.
Maybe my knee will get hurt again,
or else another part of my body.
They're paying me five million dollars a year,
and I want to prove that I'm worth it.
If I ever reach the point
where I feel like I'm not giving the fans their money's worth,
then I'll be glad to retire.
I've been playing this game since I was seven years old,
and professionally since I was 21,
I'm thankful that
I've lasted this long and done as well as I have.
It's already been a great career.
