The season's not over. What if we win the division? We don't have to worry about Tampa Bay.
I stay in touch with him, but he hasn't said anything. He really hasn't.
It's not like we have to flip any switches,
It's gonna be weird. No question. He's got that voice that tells you that it's Yankee Stadium.
It was like old times, aside from the color of the uniform. It seems like he never left. It was very familiar.
Any way you can get it done. We have to find ways to win; it may not be pretty at times, but the bottom line is wins and losses.
Their bullpen is pretty good. Any guy they throw out there doesn't put you in an ideal situation as a hitter.
Every game out was like a bigger game for him, ... and he got better and better.
He has nasty stuff. He was throwing inside and made me go to right. I guess I was due.
You want to take a picture with me? Come on, man. It was an honor for me that he wanted to take a picture.
How about some new uniforms and clean balls.
Everybody's talking about our offense, but it doesn't win games. It's pitching and defense. If I don't make that mistake, Wang would have kept rolling.
The Rocket is close to his family. He really enjoys spending a lot of time with his kids. I think that's part of the reason why when he came back, he came back to Houston. He has the luxury of being at home.
I think if he plays (in the WBC), he's healthy, he feels good in terms of condition-wise and physically, I think he'll play.
