against baseball best cool definitely home night nuts opening people saying team
It's going to be nuts in there. I mean, opening night at home is cool as it is, but that it's against what some people are saying is going to be the best team in baseball definitely makes it more exciting.
camp comfort cool definitely everybody exactly focus knowing maybe opening rotation spot spots staff three
It's pretty cool going into camp knowing exactly what the staff is going to look like on Opening Day. A lot of years, you've got a spot or two in the rotation open, and maybe another two or three spots in the 'pen. So there's definitely some comfort there. Everybody can just focus on what they need to do to get ready.
atmosphere game johnson last opening randy sort yankees year
I'm so excited. Man, it's going to be awesome. Last year's Opening Day was a day game in Baltimore, and it didn't really have the sort of atmosphere this year will have. We'll be at home, it's the Yankees and Randy Johnson -- that's just perfect. It couldn't be any better.

It's so cool to see all these people stepping up and doing something for the real heroes in our country. More and more, people are seeing that this isn't about whether you're for or against war. It's about being there in whatever way we can for the people putting their lives on the line.

It was just a great game, definitely playoff vibes. It's good for the team to come out on top in huge games like this, with a large crowd, so we can develop our psyche for that. Hopefully, when we get to the playoffs, we can deal with that in a good way.

I'm glad the offense is doing what they were doing. In spring you encounter just about every situation you'll face during the regular season. Today it was sitting for a while.
