Dustin Pedroia of the Boston Red Sox, talks about how he got recruited to play baseball in Arizona State University. ""Yeah, it was pretty hectic, I came out here on my first trip. I had four other trips planned out, and I liked it our here, I wanted to come out here and play in the Pac 10. So I cancelled all my other trips and comitted. The first few week of that process, was kind of a zoo, but it all figured itself out. I just answered the phone and was nice and polite. You have to figure out where you want to go to school, there could be a lot of places that recruit you. You just have to figure out where you want to be. Arizona state for me was the perfect fit, and I wanted to come in and play right away. I got that opportunity, so it was a great fit for me. I wanted to stay on the west coast and play in the PAC 10. Obviously Arizona state's baseball program is one of the best in the country every year, so I knew if I went there I would have a just of being drafted and playing proffesional baseball. That was pretty much a big part of my decision.""
