I would give anything to be able to have another opportunity to play in this tournament. If it meant going to some kind of camp on Feb. 1, I'd go.
It does show we're going back to normalcy when Met fans begin booing again.
I almost wish we could have stayed around till tomorrow. I'd love to see what the papers are gonna say about us now.
That was him being less stubborn and making some changes he needed to make at the plate.
I didn't know that; I'm glad you didn't tell me before the game. I'm glad we could avoid that from being a hot topic in the morning.
He's far and away, I think, the MVP of this league.
It was kinda cool - a career highlight. I don't care if it is an exhibition game. To be able to run around the bases with USA across my chest and have ( Ken Griffey ) Junior and Brian Schneider waiting at home plate to slap high-fives. That was special.
I'm going to hear it from Oscar when we get back to camp.
I'm very impressed. I've been wanting to go over to Japan for a long time to play on the All-Star tour. Everybody tells me they usually kick our butts when we go over there. So major league-caliber baseball is played over in Japan, too.
It wouldn't have been a real memorable one,
It's good to get us out to a lead. Unfortunately, that was pretty much it. It feels good to get back in there.
Nobody in here was saying it was a fluke. We all know he can do it. He got off to a horrible start last year and still bounced back and had a great season.
After the first couple of innings, I would have probably called off the dogs. But it was nice to get a big lead and relax.
Everybody is looking forward to it. I think it will have a playoff-type atmosphere, maybe just a hair more laid back. We want to represent and represent well.
