HC: Sounds like you’re pretty busy! Any game time rituals?CM: I haven’t really thought about that since it’s second nature to me. Sometimes I look out at the right field foul pole to clear my head.

HC: Describe your perfect girl. (Baseball fan, duh!)CM: She has to be in shape and she has to have some tattoos. Not a ton, I just like how they look. She has to be nice, outgoing and someone who likes to have fun.
HC: What’s your idea of a perfect date?CM: If we were home, I’d probably just take her somewhere out in D.C. and buy her a nice dinner. We wouldn’t do anything too crazy. Maybe we could go out to the bars after and have a good time.

HC: Is there a motto that you live or play by?CM: My life motto is that I roll with whatever is thrown my way.
