He's been huge. I think the thing with Chacon is he's not intimidated by anything, ... It seems like he has all the confidence in the world.
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.
He's got that demeanor where he's just having fun, it seems like. Sort of like Soriano a little bit in that sense. He's always smiling, having a good time. He doesn't seem to be affected.
He seems not to be bothered by anything, and that will help him here. Obviously he's a great player. But he's not going to have any trouble adjusting to New York after being in Boston.
You're going to win more games with pitching than you are with offense. Our pitching staff seems to have settled in pretty good. They're throwing the ball well.
They're all special. It seems like the season hasn't really officially started until we play our home opener.
It was like old times, aside from the color of the uniform. It seems like he never left. It was very familiar.
He's always tough. It seems like his knuckleball gets tougher every time we face him.
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.
