People probably think I'm joking that I'm surprised,
Hector has been a nice, pleasant surprise with another great effort on his part tonight. He has pitched four good starts. I don't know how he does it at this stage of the season. He seems to thrive on it.
Hopefully, he'll get three at-bats in a shorter period of time hitting at the top of the lineup.
He can throw it at any time and throw it for strikes. It's a very effective pitch for him. I want to learn how he throws it, keep it in mind, maybe teach it to someone else.
Big home run. Big, big, big home run in the eighth inning. The other two were big, too.
I promise you tomorrow you'll see the Opening Day lineup.
They didn't get the job done tonight. They didn't give us a chance. You can't defend walks.
He had a live arm, but he couldn't find the strike zone. You expect him to be a little sharper, but he'll throw better the next time out.
He was moving around good out there on the field. We have no concerns about his knee, but you never know until you get out there.
He had brain cramps, ... He was a spectator. It didn't hurt us tonight, but it will hurt you another time you do it. The Mets are struggling and they didn't take advantage of things.

I just wanted to pick his brain a little bit.
It would have been really fairy tale if we could have pulled this thing off. They wouldn't have even touched this in Hollywood.
I didn't even have time to say, 'Uh oh,'
