It always makes a difference, when you get a lead early in the game. Every run early on is just a mistake you can make later.
I take a lot of pride in where I sit in the rotation. After Opening Day?s over, it?s over. But there?s something to it for me. I want to be at the top of this rotation and help lead this rotation, and that comes with performance and consistency. I haven?t done that for almost two years now.
You just kind of have to realize that there are people that don't like you and, unfortunately, sometimes those people have a voice. Disliking me probably matches my dislike for him (Gomez), but I have a problem with people who don't have integrity and principle so that stuff happens. You just kind of just let it go.
Whether he's going to be able to do that, given what he's done, to me, doubtful. He has no credibility, I don't think, in that area. It's going to be tough. I just hope his life gets righted and he does the right thing.
Steroids is cheating, and winning without honor is not winning.
Some guys (came) as advertised. C.C. (Coco Crisp) at the top of the lineup, Mark generating runs, David doing what David always does, Coco made a great catch in the ninth inning. This is a very good team. Offensively, we?re going to give you nine at-bats that are going to wear you out. Later in the game, the third time through this lineup, it?s very tough to get this team out.
My splitter was better, ... I've got to throw it. I have to have it. I can't not use it.
My wife is a rock in the best sense of the word. She is the true foundation of everything this family is and will be.
That was a fantastic catch. And to someone that's as terrifically slow as I am, it looks even faster.
That's what arguably the best defense in the game and a deep bullpen will do for you, you can win games like that.
I was upset about the whole (seventh) inning,
Without David, we don't make the postseason. David made an enormous impact on this team, and you can't understate his impact in the clubhouse, ... Congratulations to Alex. Either one of them could have won it. Both had MVP years.
We just weren't good enough to win again,
In this I-me society, my job is to get people to buy into something bigger than themselves.
