credit people team
I don't think too many people give us credit because of that Dominican team. The U.S. team will be well represented.
deserved stay threw
I figured, if I threw it up in the stands, it deserved to stay there.
came close good
I came close, ... But close isn't good enough.
definitely pitches throwing time
I definitely think he's getting better. He's throwing 95 at times and throwing more pitches every outing. By the time the postseason comes, he should be our No. 1 again.
came coming definitely enjoy open players unhappy waking
I definitely feel a part of this team. They came to me with open arms. The players called me and told me how important I could be. There's not really an unhappy day for me. I enjoy waking up every day and coming to the ballpark.
beat fast high
I couldn't get back fast enough. It just beat me. I couldn't get as high as I wanted to. I have to make that catch.
I don't think he's going to show up.
boston cheer fact fans hard homes kids red respect single welcome
It's pretty magical. The fact is, you go out there and play hard and the fans always respect that, they cheer you. They welcome the Red Sox into their homes every single night. You just don't do that. Boston fans, from kids to grandparents and housewives, we're a part of their family. That they welcome us like that is pretty awesome.
good ours team
It's ours to lose. We got a good enough team to get there.
step
It's pretty amazing. There's no way, when I was 17, that I could step up in this situation.
amazing depending guys joe pitchers teams whoever
It's pretty amazing. Joe is going to be able to flip-flop guys around, like three-four-five-six, depending on whoever is going great. It's just an amazing lineup. I know the other teams always look over and go, 'Wow. Another guy! Another guy here, another guy there.' Pitchers don't get much of a break.
against both chicago cleveland country deserve feels hoping last seven sure teams wants weekend yankees
It sure feels good. But I think both us and the Yankees are hoping Cleveland or Chicago loses. We know those teams deserve to be in it. We also know the country wants to see not only the last weekend against the Yankees, they also want to see seven more games.
definitely easier picked swing team
Derek Jeter picked up the whole team with one swing of the bat. It's definitely going to be much easier for me to sleep.
career course game seen
Derek is so talented, you know that over the course of a game, he's going to do something dramatic. I've seen it enough times in my career from the other side. He's very, very professional when the game is on the line.
