That seems to be pretty much where I'm leaning. I think it's going to be the team I'm going to represent, kind of like what (Mike) Piazza's doing with Italy.
It took me a little while to realize that Joe knows everything that's going on around here. It might not seem that way, because he's so low-key. But he knows exactly what's going on in the clubhouse and in the dugout. I've never seen a manager that plugged in.
Seems like it was inevitable. You knew that it would come to this.
You're obviously scared to death. That ball seemed like it was 110 miles an hour off the bat.
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.
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.

I'm very close with Gary and I love Gary, and Gary's a great teammate. We'll leave it at that.

I mean, we were 10 games back in late July.
I know what kind of a crazy competitor I am. If I'm in Lakeland in March and my country is playing Japan in the semifinals in Arizona, I know I'd want to be there. I'm the best guy available to help the team.
