capable certainly confident fact feels felt good last respect takes team win
I think we respect the fact of what it takes to win the World Series. I certainly respect that. I felt like they were a really good team last year, so we respect who we're playing. But I also think that everyone in here feels pretty confident about what we're capable of doing.
absolutely cliff conscious dugout effort fun guys knack pride takes winning year
Absolutely there are guys who have a knack for winning games. Cliff is one of them, and it's very underrated. All year long, if we have a big inning, he makes a conscious effort to get us back in the dugout fast. He takes a lot of pride in that. He's fun to play behind.
dad game good people sounds time win
My dad used to say all the time to go out and win this inning. It's one pitch, one inning, one game at a time. It sounds ridiculous, but people who are good at doing it have more success.
celebrate deserve honor series ultimate win
The ultimate is to win the World Series and they deserve the right to celebrate that and honor that season.
involved man win
That's the ultimate, man. To win one of those, to be involved in something like that, that's what we all play for.
hand hopefully win
Everyone had a hand in tonight's win and hopefully it will get us going a little bit.
accustomed came consider expect fully good member perform positive season time year
It was a disappointing year for me personally, because I didn't perform at any time during the season the way I'm accustomed to performing. But on the positive side, when you consider where I came from, I still rallied out of it to be a contributing member on a good team. This year, being fully healthy, I expect to make more of an impact.

college elite emerging guy impressive last
He's already emerging as one of the elite closers in the game. That's pretty impressive for a guy who was in college last year.
friends-or-friendship good last
I'm actually pretty good friends with him. I didn't really think much of that last year, or much of this. It's in the game, and that's what happens.
tough
It's disappointing because we were so close, and we all know how tough it is to get that close.
bowl fireworks music super
Kind of like the Super Bowl before the game. All the fireworks and the music blasting.
mistakes
He didn't make many mistakes on the big part of the plate.
cash good pitchers question
It's frustrating, no question about it. As good as our pitchers did to not be able to cash in is frustrating.
