We came into this game with a lot of confidence. We felt like could play well and dominate this game. That's the one thing about baseball. You can't predict what's going to happen.
We do not do anything different. The procedure is handled the same way as any other procedure. The only difference is that we will have cameras in the room.
We really came into this game with a lot of confidence. It felt like we could play well and dominate this game.
We were totally out of gas trying to hold off the Red Sox. And that happened because we didn't play well at the start of the year. We came out of spring training this year knowing we need to play well right from the get-go.
I would trade this award for David's World Series trophy. Winning an MVP is great, but I came here to do one thing, to win one championship and go from there.
I would trade this award for David's World Series trophy, ... Winning an MVP is great, but I came here to do one thing, to win one championship and go from there.
I couldn't be more proud of guys like Derek Jeter, Sheffield, Matsui. They absolutely played incredible. Randy Johnson came back with a warrior-type performance today. Unfortunately, guys like myself didn't contribute. This team has a lot of potential, and we'll be back.
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.
It was tough on me. I understand that most people will just ridicule and make fun of it, but unless you understand my background, where I come from and the passion that my family and my heritage holds, I don't expect anyone to understand that.
