Role models...
Scott's Role model is Greg Maddux – he admires his work ethic and discipline, and how he's stayed clean in the steroid era. He also admires his father for showing him the importance of establishing a good work ethic and having a healthy balance between friends, school, sports and community.

Catch him before a game and you'll find him...
eating a cheeseburger – when he eats one for lunch, he finds that he pitches well later that day.

Hit PLAY on his MP3 player and you might hear...
rock and roll and Linkin Park.

In a few years you might find him...
playing baseball and attending college at UCLA.

He's kind of a big deal...
