experience might team year
This year might be more of a challenge, every day, with different roles. I think I have enough experience with this team that I can help.
team careers yankees
When my Yankee career is over I'll play anywhere, but I'm positive that I'll never find a team quite like the Yankees.
couple face good help red teammate
He has been with other teams, too, so it's not like he was the face of the Red Sox. He had a couple good years with them and he's our teammate now. He's going to help us a lot.
aside benefit goals good looking nice personal picture putting team win
Very exciting. But I think this team has been very good on putting personal goals aside for the benefit of the team, and I think this should be no different. I think my goal right now is just to play as good as I can so we can win the series. This is a nice note, but still, we're looking at the big picture here.
return teams
It is weird. You know going in, that this isn't going to last. In a little while, we'll return to our teams and it'll be back to normal.

It's not a casual thing for the fans here anymore. Before, people came halfway through the game and left by the seventh inning, no matter the score. It's a credit to the front office that they have put a winning team on the field, and the people are interested in what happens.

This reminds me of '98, ... Hopefully (today) will not be my last game here. I don't take any day I come here for granted, and I never have. But I don't want to treat this game like it's my last, and I don't want the fans to act any differently.
good pitcher reaction
You have to have speed, but you also have to have good reaction to what the pitcher is doing,'' Raines said.
business trying
We went out there trying hard. Unfortunately, we're not in the business of trying. We're in the business of doing.
doubt good mind retire until
I didn't want to retire until I had no doubt in my mind it was what I wanted to do. I feel good enough to still play.
fun good love report scouting
I'd love to play those guys. I was just having some fun with Alex, but, yeah, let's go. If we play these guys, I've got a good scouting report on them.
care determined finish future great hopefully present
My future is going to be determined in a great way on how we finish this year. So I've got to take care of the present now, and hopefully the future will take care of itself.
baseball happy jazz people player playing
One thing I've got going for me is I'm a baseball player playing a guitar. I'm not a renowned jazz guitarist. There should be people who are just happy to see me up there playing.
catch feeling good jumps loose pumped somebody throw took
I was feeling loose and relaxed, took some good jumps on balls. I was able to make a catch and throw somebody out, which I was very pumped about.
