Today the sinker was working, it was moving a lot, and the curveball was amazing. He made pitches when he needed to.

I think we can. We lost some pretty big guys but we got some good ones too.
I was in good position, so he could slide, but he came after me,
It feels good. I'm happy to be back.
You know Tony, he's a smart manager. He gave me the sign, so I did it.
He came into the dugout laughing. He said it was about time he hit one out.
He can pitch better. I think he was good --good enough to get the victory. Every start, he's going to get better and better and better.
If something's not working and it doesn't feel right, I'm not going to keep doing the same thing. I've had a hard time getting comfortable. I've fouled pitches off I should have hit. It's frustrating.
Two or three more days and I'll be back. I feel good. I made some strong swings. No pain, no pain at all.
Most of the time, he was up. He tried to keep the ball down and he couldn't. When you leave the ball up, they make you pay.
There's not much room there. But we'll see how that (plays). It's a great view, a beautiful view of the city.
It was unbelievable. It was like playing in the World Series. That surprised me. Who knew that many people live in Puerto Rico?
Albert is a great teammate and a great person who is one of the best players in baseball. I take advice from him. He wants to know how you're doing and is willing to help make me a better hitter. He always has been that way since I've known him. I'm lucky to be with him right now.
