It's the only way we know how to do it. We can win 10-9 or 2-1. It's just something that over the last three or four years, we have no idea on how to blow another team out. I think a lot of guys in here are used to the tough games.
It's a tough loss. We've been through a lot of adversity all season long. We've been able to bounce back and come back.
Everyone can make their own decisions about what's going on. It's not for players to answer. It's just a tough situation right now.
That way I won't have to miss any games. This is the time of year where it's a little bit of a tough time, and she didn't want me to miss any games, anyway.
It was a good pitcher's duel, but it would have been tough to waste that pitching performance by Andy. The biggest thing with Andy was getting his velocity back. Everybody in here knew that once he did, you're going to see what you saw before. When he's throwing that cutter at 83-84-85 miles an hour last year and getting away with it then, you could only imagine what it was going to be like when he started getting it up to 90-91.
How did he pull it out? If I was a fan, I would have mauled him.
It's just fun coming to the park now. The fans are pretty pumped up, too.
I'm not out here to disrespect anybody, ... And obviously with Wags, I'm not. I just kind of hit it and I was like, man, I got it. I looked at it and just ran.
I think those guys aren't so young anymore,
I think we had four great games. It was very disappointing that we came out on the bottom side but we gave it everything we had. We gave everything we had for (the fans).
That's the first time I've ever faced Billy. He threw me a fastball in, then inside again. The last pitch was 99 mph, so I could have popped it up.
Just seeing it in spring training was something that was pretty special. We wanted the winning one, and hopefully we can turn that around and maybe get one.
I think it was more their destiny than ours.
