accept bring career fans great proud reputation
I thought the first day was awesome. It's great to see a lot of the fans accept me as being a Yankee. You feel proud because you know what you've done over your career and you know what your reputation is, and they know what I can bring to New York.
appreciate fans four great hope remember series three tried
(Red Sox) fans are going to be upset. I hope they remember the great World Series and the three out of four years we made the playoffs. I appreciate them. I tried to come back.
bone five great love mean
Manny is a great person. I love him, and he doesn't have a mean bone in his body. But he's been there five years, and sometimes it is too much for him.
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.
bigger great maybe numbers people role valuable wants
That can't go unnoticed. You look at his numbers and he's had a great career. I don't know how many years he wants to play, but Bernie is going to have a much bigger role than maybe people think. He's going to be valuable to us.
boston franchise greatest playing team time
My time in Boston was great. But now I'm here playing for the greatest franchise in the world. The team with the most championships.
great guy high hit
That was great for me to see because I was the guy who was up before him, and when he hit it I jumped pretty high out of the dugout.

It feels like it's really close. My body is getting ready for what's going to be a very, very, very great season.
anymore caught countries expect few field gloves great onto passed players throw
We can't just throw our gloves out onto the field anymore and expect to win. The world has caught up. A few countries may have passed us. There are great players from all over the planet.
definitely great hat middle strikes throw throwing tip
We definitely didn't know much about him. He did a great job. We have to tip our hat to him. He didn't throw anything in the middle part of the plate. He didn't make any mistakes. He was getting in and out. He was throwing strikes up and down.
best extended game great leaving randy ready stretch wish
Worst-case scenario, we would have been only one game up leaving here. Three?s all right. We wish we could have extended it, but Randy pitched a great game, as did Wake. That?s the best Randy?s been all year. He?s getting ready for the stretch drive.
great hitting runners scoring team
Hitting with runners in scoring position, that's what we need to do to win. It was a great team win.

I have a lot of friends there and we had some great moments. But a lot of the guys are gone and that's how baseball is. The teams make their choices.
