I think I've been in some good situations where I've been on teams that needed a couple key players but already had their nucleus intact,
Hal and I really just sat back and started thinking about things, and the way that I need to go about seeing pitches and getting in the right frame of mind, ... I've just been working hard every day to get where I needed to be.
Well, it never gets old. It was fun. I'm not quite there yet with what's going on. When they say 'MVP,' it's numbing. It's not like it's over yet.

It is exciting. It would have been more exciting if we had won the game. When you get to a milestone like that, it's pretty special.
I think it is the cutting (with his weakened ankle),
Who knows what's going to unfold when we get home? Nobody knows. All we know is this: Now we have a chance.
Lima has always been Lima. He tries to get you caught up in his world, ... He did tonight.
It felt like I had never played baseball before and I was glad to get that one out of the way, ... was real nice.
When you get the juices going, when you're in the moment, ... it's very hard to calm down.
When you hit a home run in that situation, it is gratifying, ... Then when you hit home plate, then you've forgotten about it and you've got to move forward. So it's a lot of fun, but we've still got a long way to go.
Winning is an attitude. Winning is being able to go out to have a relentless attitude. Yeah, you can teach that. It is going to take a lot to understand. It is a group effort, not an individual effort. We have to try to embed that in their heads.
What we're trying to do, ... is be as fine-tuned and honed-in on the small things as we can possibly be.
Usually, bench players don't get as much time, ... We have to filter them in any way that we can, so they can get those at-bats. So, I hope they can continue to stay as hot as they are, and when we call upon them to go out and play again, they do as well as they did.
