behind guys scoring team turn
When it's your turn and guys are in scoring position, you want to get them in. If you don't, it's the guy behind them who will get them in. We play team baseball, and I know that is why we have been so successful.
board happened hit overlooked runs six
I don't know if it was just my turn. It just so happened my hit scored two runs. We put six runs on the board and not to be overlooked is our pitching.
surprise
I think we're going to surprise a lot of people.
stay
You're going to find when I'm not smiling, stay away from me.
smooth top win
I told him in the top of the ninth, when we win this game, you're the MVP. To come out as smooth as he did, to me he's the MVP.
credit jamie living squeezed
Jamie was great. Was Schilling great, too? I never credit pitchers. I make my living off pitchers. But Jamie was great, and he got squeezed a lot, too.
allowed respect
If it wasn't for those guys, things would still probably be the way they are. The things they accomplished have allowed me to be a ballplayer, so I always respect them for that.

You know he's going to throw high fastballs out of the zone and breaking balls. It's just being patient enough. You learn from it.

We just didn't get the clutch hit, but we fought the whole way. We played 27 outs and had our opportunities. It shows the character of this team. We're not giving up.

We'll just have to get to Cleveland and play a little better baseball.
baseball best came defense great league pitching solid
We were solid the whole time. Our pitching was great, we had great defense and it showed tonight. Uribe came up so clutch. He's the best shortstop in the league right there. Without him tonight, we'd still be playing.
ahead expect forget frustrated game himself older people pitch pitcher positive saw stay thoughts worry
We saw that he was frustrated with himself a little bit. As older guys, we have to stay on him, make him think positive thoughts. Just one pitch at a time. Get ahead of the hitters. Be the pitcher he can be and forget about some of the thoughts that he has. Just pitch his game and not worry about what people expect from you. He's going to come around.
baseball yankees long
As long as I'm around playing baseball, it doesn't matter where I am, as long as it's not with the Yankees.
sports dumb say-anything
The Bible never says anything about dinosaurs. You can't say there were dinosaurs when you never saw them. Somebody actually saw Adam and Eve. No one ever saw a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
