There's no comfort. We know what the Boston Red Sox are all about. We saw what they did last year and that's very clear in our minds.
I don't think we're seeing colors in the other team's uniforms, ... We know each game is important whether it's Boston or Tampa. We need each game desperately, and we're playing that way.
It was a miracle we won the division. By the time we got to Boston last year, we were so deliriously tired because we dug too big a hole. We don't want to get ourselves in that situation again.
It seems like it was inevitable. You knew we'd win today. You knew Boston would win today. Even when they were down, 4-1, you kind of had a feeling.
It seems like it's inevitable. We both have great teams and we have to go through Boston now. They're the world champs. And you have to go through New York. We know that and they know that.

If I were a Boston fan, I would be giving him a standing ovation. But I'm not a Boston fan.
I'm not concerned with what Boston does or Cleveland. We have to play our best baseball down the stretch.
We've been swinging the bats progressively better the last three days. We have to work on being more consistent.
We were like desperate animals trying to survive, and animals are most dangerous when they are in a snare.
We win and lose as a team ... I'm as proud of these guys ... We left our guts on the field.
I've never seen Matsui ever make a mistake. That's the weirdest thing.
It would be a great privilege, ... I think this is the year that anything's possible, because I don't think there's one runaway guy.
It was tough ... on me to be honest with you. I can remember in December sitting in my house, and my mom and my wife having a debate for two hours about it.
