easily great huge team turned
It was huge for us. They've got a great team over there, and we could have easily turned this thing into a disaster.
anytime guy missing piece team throws
He's a big part of this team offensively. Every guy in this lineup is an All-Star, and anytime you're missing that big a piece of the puzzle, especially the way we've kind of got it going offensively, it kind of throws you off a little bit.
adding team
If we didn't keep adding on runs, they would have come back on us. That team doesn't quit.
baseball game teams totally
I know we like to think baseball is America's game, but that isn't totally true. There are some teams out there that can play this game pretty well.

batting encouraged encouragement excited few friend good great guy hitter include johnny last natural next places preferred presence return sign spoke strongly teammate week whose year
Johnny and I spoke a few times over the last week and I strongly encouraged him to sign with the Yankees. It is good to know that our lineup next year will include a natural leadoff hitter whose presence allows Jeter and A-Rod to return to their preferred places in the batting order. Johnny is a good friend and a great guy to have in the clubhouse. I am very excited about having him as a teammate again.

It's been a lot of hard work and a lot of grinding it out.
head hit knew last since spring strung training work year
I was all over the place then. I had been hit (by a pitch) in the head and had been doing so much work since spring training to try and make up for last year that I was just strung out. But I knew it would change.

I have nothing to say. I haven't seen it.

I think it's pretty pathetic that they tried to drag my father into it.
