I'm just looking forward again to having my name called playing left field and seeing that little kid in the stands. Those are the visions that I see. I haven't got to the game part yet, how my emotions are going to feel. Am I going to be nervous or jittery? Guys are playing really good. I don't want to mess it up.
That's a great compliment if that's the case, ... These guys are good. Everybody's playing well. You just can't take two days and two games right now and start riding the white pony. You've got continue on. If we're going to make a run at this, we've got to continue winning. There's no looking back.
We talked about my knee and took a few X-rays. After looking at the X-rays, we decided it would be a good idea to drain the knee. This draining is to make sure there isn't any infection and that I'm healing properly. Overall everything looks positive.
I never chased Hank to begin with. I just want to win championships. That's all I want to do. That's the only thing I'm playing for, the only thing that's keeping me going.
I'm very anxious to get on the field,
I just want to win a championship. I'm playing to win a championship. That's the only thing that keeps me going. ... The only thing keeping me in the game of baseball right now is trying to win a championship for the team, trying to win a championship with a bunch of guys.
I'm just waiting on the doctors, ... I'll see what they say.
It's standing around that's hard. It's just the waiting. When I'm running around, I'm loose.
(Eckstein's) one of my favorite players ever, ... I told him that he's a gift from God.
Everyone has their time and era, ... In all sports.
Everybody wants to get to the playoffs. You can just see it in the dugout that everybody wanted to win. If you get behind, sometimes you can just give up. No one gave up. Our pitching did a great job.
It was heartwarming, wonderful. It's our crowd. It's our town. These are our people. It made me feel great.
Nothing to say. I'd have to get a call to answer that question.
After that at-bat I was spent, ... I got a little tired by like the fifth inning. Your adrenaline is going so hard. I knew that was going to happen. I hung in there as long as I could.
