I talked to him as a friend, talked to him like his father, ... I said: 'You continue to do this, you're going to ruin your life. Whatever happened in the past is over. You are strong enough to turn this page on the past.'
comment embarrass leave leaving win
My comment was if we win (the World Series), I will think about leaving because I want to leave as a winner. I don't want to embarrass myself.
bench league might prepared
My bench has to be better prepared right now than they were for the American League because they might see more action.
advantage ball game helped inches
When the ball bounces your way, you have a chance. This is a game about inches, and we take advantage of the two inches that helped us today.
cleveland control games playing winning worry
We can't control (what Cleveland does). They are playing so well. We just have to worry about winning our own games. You know they are going to win the way they are playing now. But we just have to worry about how we'll play and win as many games as we can.
breathe brought guys last mistake pitching runs score staff year
We can score more runs this year than last year. That's why we brought those guys here. Last year, God, it was 2-1, 1-0, 3-2 every game. My pitching staff couldn't even breathe one minute. They can't even make one mistake because we'd lose.

That's the way we play, good defense, good pitching and get clutch hitting. That's what we did last season.

goes pitcher pitching sets
Like I say every day, I think the pitching sets the tone. When you've got a pitcher go there and do what Jose did today, I think everything goes perfectly.
kid men plays reason risk second solid thinking third
I was thinking we'd have men on second and third and one out. There was a lot of risk ... But this kid is a real solid second baseman. That is one reason he plays every day.
I think right now our lineup should be better offensively.
batteries believe days everybody hopefully month team thinks time turn
I think right now it's time to turn it up another notch. It's time to refuel the batteries and go for it. This month is real important to us. The first 15 days are real important for us. Hopefully we can go there and we believe we can do that and hopefully everybody on my team thinks the same way I think.
