builds came confidence definitely group guys next ourselves situations time
I think it builds confidence to know you can came back in situations like this. Next time we find ourselves in that situation, we know we can do it. We definitely have a group of guys who like being around each other. And I think something like this makes us even closer.
call definitely everybody knows leader longest looks outside paul played quite team together whatever
He's definitely a leader on this team. He's been here, probably outside of Frank, the longest on this team. He knows this organization and most of us have played together for quite some time. Everybody looks up to Paul as a leader and team captain, whatever you want to call him.
bottom catch compliment definitely fact figure good line numbers recognize stuff
I don't know how they figure that stuff out, but it's definitely a compliment for someone to recognize the fact that I play good defense. I don't know what those numbers mean, but the bottom line is to go out and catch the ball.
definitely experience feeling glad guys obviously odd rest share spent uniform
It's obviously an odd feeling being here and not being in uniform with the rest of the team. I spent a lot of years here. It's definitely an odd situation, but I'm definitely glad to be here to see the guys and share this experience with them.
advantage angels earned sure tougher yankees
I think we've earned what we got. To take away that advantage wouldn't be fair. If it was the other way around, I'm sure the Yankees or the Angels would feel the same way we do. It's just part of the road, you have to take to get where you have to go. Sometimes it's a little tougher for some than for others.
love tasty
It got me right in the tasty cakes. There's a lot of love there.
ability chemistry everybody pull rope team worry
I think there's not enough made about the chemistry of a team and the ability of everybody to pull on the same end of the rope and worry about what matters, and that's wins.
approach extra fun great jimmy pressure putting seems
Jimmy just seems to have a way of not putting extra pressure on himself. He's having fun, and that's a great way to approach the streak.
believe chances critics deal division fourth guys last people picked success ultimately
I think everyone picked us fourth in our division last season. You're going to deal with critics and people who have their own opinions, but ultimately it's about the 25 guys in the clubhouse. If we believe we can go out there and win, our chances of going out and having success go way up.
caught safe
We caught a break. We'll take it any way we can get it. Personally, I like to think of it as retribution, 'cause I thought I was safe at home.
beat earlier games good played relaxed stuff three thrown
We played these three games the way we did earlier in the season. We had so much stuff thrown at us, but once we clinched, we relaxed and beat a very good team.
along brings face frank good guys job
Right now, with Frank being out, he's probably the face of this organization. He does a good job with it and brings guys along for the ride.

I stop watching baseball when football season starts,

It all started the first inning when he got on base. Everybody in the dugout was like, 'All right, it's show time,'
