मुझे लगता है कि हर महिला अपनी छोटी सी दुनिया से बाहर निकलकर पुरुषों की इस दुनिया को चुनौती देना चाहती है। और मुझे चुनौतियाँ बहुत पसंद हैं। मुझे यह बात अच्छी लगती है कि यह सब आसान नहीं होने वाला। शुरुआत करने वाली पहली महिला बनना यकीनन कठिन होगा। मैं बस आगे बढ़ते रहना चाहती हूँ और लगातार तरक्की करना चाहती हूँ।
I think all women want to get out of our own little bubble and challenge a man's world. And I love challenges. I love that this isn't going to be easy. Being the first is going to be hard. I just want to keep pushing and progressing.

मुझे लगता है कि जब आप किसी चीज़ को लेकर वाकई जुनूनी होते हैं—शायद हर कोई ऐसा न हो, लेकिन एक बड़ा वर्ग ऐसा है जो अंदर से गहराई से महसूस करता है—कि मुझे कुछ अलग चाहिए, मुझे कुछ और चाहिए, मुझे अपने खुद के रास्ते पर चलना है। यह बात असहजता के साथ सहज होने की है। क्योंकि ऐसा करने के लिए आपको अपने कम्फर्ट जोन यानी अपनी सुविधा के दायरे से बाहर कूदना ही होगा, और वह सफर बिल्कुल सही-सलामत नहीं रहेगा। वह डरावना होगा। और मेरे लिए, तभी महान चीज़ें घटित होती हैं।
I think when you're really passionate about something, and maybe not every person is like this, but I think there's a large group that feels deep inside, I want something different, I want something more, I want to go on my own path. It's being comfortable being uncomfortable. Because to do that, you're going to have to jump outside of the comfort zone and it isn't going to be perfect. It's going to be scary. And to me, that's when great things happen.

हम सब और बेहतर कैसे बन सकते हैं? हम लगातार खुद को बदलकर बेहतर बन सकते हैं, न कि यह कहकर कि चूँकि बेसबॉल में हमेशा से पुरुष ही रहे हैं, इसलिए हमें इसे वैसा ही बनाए रखना चाहिए। मुझे लगता है कि हमें हमेशा खुद को उन कामों को करने की चुनौती देनी चाहिए जो पहले कभी नहीं किए गए हैं।
How can we all be better? We can be better by constantly evolving and not saying, Because baseball has always had men, let's make sure we keep it that way. I think we should always challenge ourselves to do things that have never been done.

बेसबॉल विश्लेषक बनना मेरे लिए केवल इसलिए महत्वपूर्ण नहीं था कि मैं इस क्षेत्र में कदम रखने वाली पहली महिलाओं में से एक बनूँ, बल्कि इसलिए था कि मैं सचमुच इस दरवाजे को तोड़कर अंदर जाऊँ और वहीं टिक जाऊँ, ताकि हम अपने दोस्तों और बाकी सभी को भी यह कहकर अंदर बुला सकें कि आ जाओ, अब दरवाजा खुला है। मुझे इस बात पर बहुत गर्व है कि मैंने खुद पर यह दबाव डाला: 'ठीक है जेस, इस समय तुम्हारे कंधों पर बहुत सारी महिलाओं की उम्मीदें हैं और जिम्मेदारी तुम्हारी है, इसलिए इसे बिगाड़ना मत।' मैंने जानबूझकर खुद पर यह दबाव डाला, ताकि मैं यह समझ सकूँ कि यह सिर्फ मेरी बात नहीं है, बल्कि पूरी महिला जाति की बात है।
Becoming baseball analyst was really important for me to not just be one of the first, but to literally break open the door and come in and stay, so that we could start inviting our friends and everyone, like, Come on. The door is open now. I am so proud of the fact that I put that pressure on myself: Alright, Jess, you've got a lot of women on your back right now and it's on you, so don't screw it up. I put that pressure on myself on purpose, so I'd realize it's not just about me, it's about a whole gender.
