I got tested a little bit. I'm still a little sore.
I got little bumps and chills when I saw my uniform, the (number) 13 Rodriguez, and I saw red, white and blue. As corny as it sounds, I go back to my brother (Victor) who's fought in war and is a 30-year vet of the U.S. Air Force. It makes me very proud.

I don't know what happened. You'd have to ask Joe West.
I don't know what happened, ... I think it was very costly, but at the same time we had our chances offensively.
I don't know why he got ejected. We had 14 people in the dugout yelling at the umpire and I guess he just picked out the manager. There was no warning or anything. I think it helped us.

I was surprised he bunted on a 3-1 count, and I think I jumped myself a little, ... When I went down, I felt it a little.
Last year was the toughest year of my whole career. I feel a lot more comfortable in New York this year.
