arm ball concerned feels pain threw throw
There was no pain whatsoever. I loosened up and threw the ball fine. I'm going to go at it the way I have to. If I have to make the throw I'll do it. I'm not too concerned about it. My arm feels good.
breaks maybe ought send
He breaks a lot of my at-bats. Maybe I ought to send him a bill.
weird win written
It was a weird night. We could have been written off. Now we've got to go out and win some ballgames. Preferably three.
ace reason
He's our ace now. He's the reason Pedro and Derek Lowe aren't here.
crazy everybody exhibition game march spring
It's just an exhibition game in spring training. I think by now everybody understands what happened. I'm not going to go crazy over one game in March when we play them 19 times during the year.
captain hitting since waiting win
I just know I've been waiting for this ever since I signed. To win like that, with the Captain hitting a homer. It's something I'll take with me forever.
fooling game guys hurt playing whether
So many times, you see guys getting hurt whether they're just fooling around or not playing very hard. For me, I have to keep up with the routine, play like every game may be my last.

Moose is going to have a big year. He has many arm angles and he knows how to spot his pitches. He just knows what he's doing out there.

Hopefully, they cheer. If not, I understand because I'm wearing the Yankees uniform.

He expects us to win. And if we don't, he's not going to be the only one who's upset about it.
embarrass last
I think it's going to be like the postseason. The last thing we want to do is embarrass our country.
embarrass expect given gloves good hard last league major single throwing tough win
The last thing we want to do is to embarrass our country, with how much they've given to every single Major League player. We can't go there and get embarrassed. We need to go out, hustle, play hard and do all that good stuff. There are some tough teams, so we can't expect to go out and win just by throwing our gloves on the field.
agreed boston bright caught contract declined great heard honest might red stories time today wish
It caught me by surprise. I kind of heard stories that him and Boston had agreed on a contract and what not, and I hear today that he declined and he might just take some time off. Theo is a very bright guy. I'll always wish him the best. He was always honest with me and was great for the Red Sox.
balls no-excuses excuse
There is no excuse for not catching a ball you can get to.
