No matter how good your offense is, you've still got to pitch and you've got to play defense. We didn't have any problem scoring runs last year.
The bottom line is we didn't get it done,
The bottom line is it's never over until the last out. If you've done something before, you always think you can do it again.
As of now, as a team and as an organization, we can't think about Rocket. He hasn't made up his mind. Let him decide first. We need to focus on the guys that we have now. We have a great pitching staff.
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.
Any way you can get it done now. Robbie put down a good bunt to get the runners over. It seems like every at-bat is important at this point in the year.
Apparently the guy sent stuff to a lot of people and made threats, which is serious, ... My letter, what I was sent, it wasn't a threat.
This doesn't happen too often. We were right in the position we want to be in in the ninth inning, with Mo. Even when they got the first couple of guys on, we still like our chances. ... He made a good pitch, the guy just found a hole.
They do all the little things. I think they're a pest for most teams.
This will not be Bernie Williams' last game in Yankee Stadium.
We know we can't rely on scoring all those runs. We know it's great to have some guys that are swinging the bats well, and we're going to score. But it's not going to happen all season.
Wakefield was probably as good as I've seen him. His ball was moving all over the place. We could have been out there for another three hours and I don't think we'd have gotten any more hits off him.
We're helpless now. There's nothing you can do. We just wait to see what happens. But we put ourselves in that position.
We haven't accomplished anything. Last I checked, you don't win anything with (11) games left.
