eight matter matters pattern point runs whether
That's been the pattern all year, ... No matter how many runs we have, whether it's one or eight or nine, we never have a run we didn't need. At this point of the season, it doesn't matter how we won, it just matters we did it.
best cold face glad guy halfway last major pitcher runs since work year
Since halfway through last year this guy has probably been the best pitcher in the major leagues. I don't think anyone's been better. I'm just glad I don't have to face him. He's nasty. On a cold night, you give him some runs to work with and he's going to be tough.

At this point of season in 2000, we had so many pitchers who were injured, so we had so many question marks going into the postseason, ... This year we've been lucky and haven't had too many injuries. Our pitching has been there all year. We have no reason to believe it won't be come playoff time. We do feel good about our pitching.

He's a fiery, mean type of guy, ... but in a good way. He's an in-your-face type of guy that keeps you on your toes. He's so competitive, and takes it to a different level.
