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.
baseball fans guys historians mean stuff worried
Obviously, it'd mean a lot to fans and baseball historians and stuff like that. But we're not worried about that. We're worried about the 25 guys in here.
against bats bunch elbows enjoy guy love played playing stepping stuff throwing
I know we didn't like him a whole bunch when we played against him in Minnesota, (him) stepping on bats and throwing elbows and stuff like that, but that's him. He's a guy you love to have when he's on your team, but probably not a guy you enjoy playing against.
anyone good stuff
If there's anyone better right now, I'd like to see him. His stuff is as good or better than anyone in the game.
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.
call destiny help maybe night spooky stuff ultimate whatever
But you know what? I'll take any of that spooky stuff -- or whatever you want to call it -- every night if it can help us get to the ultimate goal. ... I don't know. It's destiny maybe. I don't want to say that, because it's not over yet. But if it happens, get back to me -- because maybe it was.
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.
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.
