Everyone on the team scored. We had four guys in double-digits.
No one's told me anything about that (being the everyday second baseman),
I was in the right position at the right time. It was just a momentum change for us. Anytime you're in an atmosphere like that, with a crowd like that, any play you make to turn the momentum can be big.
He's helped me through everything, really. Having Johnny Mac to really show me everything and giving you positive feedback -- how I'm doing, how I'm looking. It's always good to have someone there.
I thought we shot the ball well from the outside, especially in the third quarter. We had solid scoring from everyone, and defensively we were very solid.
I'm real proud of the kids. Last year we were beat physically. This year we weren't pushed around. This win goes to last year's seniors as well as this year's.
Most people don't know what this city has to offer,
You can't mess with older guys that have a lot more money than you.
I've taken ground balls there during batting practice and Orlando's given me tips like a good veteran. ... I'll work hard at it and it'll feel like home,
They're so smart up here and it's such a different game. It's still baseball but as far as the thought process and everything it's different.
It was a great game for our low-post players. They were just dynamite.
They are just great, great ball defenders. They've done it to a lot of people this year.
It's fun to make it interesting for the Red Sox-Yankees pennant race. We're a big team this week.
This team's always been good at even if we don't win battling back and not giving away at-bats. We kept in there and ended up on top.
