best doubt games mirror nine pitching runs score staff
When you score nine runs, these are games you have to win, no doubt about it. When your best thing is the pitching staff and you score nine runs for the pitching staff we've had all year, no way we should have lost. We have to look in the mirror and pitch better.
cocky last rub year
When you're world champions, you (can) be cocky or try to rub it in their face. It's nice. You have the ring, you have the trophy. I always said last year, 'We're not that good.' This year it's the same way.
baseball fans game helps jim love negative people respects team treats
He helps us in the field. But he helps this team more in the clubhouse, in the hotels, in the bus, in the planes. You look around baseball and one of the people they don't say anything negative about is Jim Thome. They love the way he respects the game and treats his fans and teammates.
bases bother players playing steal
That really doesn't bother me, because that's how we play. We steal bases and that's going to happen. I don't want my players not playing aggressively.
baseman best joe playing third
I think with Joe, this is what we are going to get. But when Joe is playing like he did, he is one of the best third baseman in the AL.
baseball care good people proved
If I think I'm good, I don't care about that stuff. If he's not with the Cubs, he'll be with someone else. He's already proved to a lot of people in baseball that he's a good manager. That's it, he's a good manager.
baseball counts high hurt last later low might month pitch played throw trying
I don't want to see high pitch counts because they might get hurt later in the season. Last year, they played another month of baseball that they never did before. I'm trying to keep the pitch counts low to keep them fresh. If you throw 130-140, in the end you'll pay. Don't overdue it.
baseball believing doubting good happy people playing
I'm so happy for these kids. A lot of people started doubting us. Even we started doubting us. But then we started believing again, started playing good baseball again, and I like the way we're playing going into the playoffs.
jamie tough
Jamie can be tough on a lot of guys. It allows me to use my bench, but he can just be tough on hitters. Look at the numbers.
cubs fans people rivalry says side south white
I know there is a rivalry between the Cubs fans and the White Sox fans, but people have to know this is one city. On the chest, it doesn't say South Side or White Sox. It says Chicago.
leave opportunity pick win
I say this because I want to win it here. It would give me the opportunity to pick what I want to do. I didn't say I'd leave baseball. I can't live without baseball.

I went out and talked to Freddy, about if he's got enough,
grabbing nobody seen
I have never seen anything like this. Here is a shot, take it, and nobody is grabbing it.

I have a rule on my team. If you are late and not on the disabled list, you won't be on my team.
