Player-wise, we just try to make it another game. But it?s kind of hard to do that when you have the electricity at the stadiums. The fans play a huge part in setting the tone for the series.
I've never even thought about it. Maybe because I don't have any kids. I know it's a big problem, but I just never thought about it. I've never had any reason to bring awareness (about it) to myself. What Joe is doing is groundbreaking. I think it's a lot harder to be the first person to talk about it. Maybe more people will start because of him.
It's not that hard to figure out. I was always good in math.
It's hard to picture him not being here.
They're a completely different team (than Tampa Bay).
He's that way in the dugout during games,
(The fans) were with him until he got picked off second.
They do all the little things. I think they're a pest for most teams.
You can't take any more time. Adams gets down the line pretty good. He hit it slow; a high chopper. There was no time to flip to Robbie.
I've been lying to you guys for a long time, saying I wasn't nervous and there's no pressure. There was a lot of pressure to do it here.
I've been with Mo for 14 years. It's mind-boggling when you look at how consistent he's been all these years. I don't think anything he does amazes me anymore.
The feeling is that it's over. It doesn't always happen, but that's the feeling you have. Mo has been automatic for a while.
It's something that happened two or three months ago, ... It really wasn't a big deal, so I don't know why it's a big issue today.
It's always weird when you're facing guys that you played with.
