close great performance pitching played season seems smell time today weird win
It seems that every win at this time of the season is big. When you're getting close to the end, you can kind of smell it. Today we played kind of weird baseball, but we got a great pitching performance from Pedro. And in a one-run game, anything can happen.

It's a new season. You've seen a lot of wild-card teams get to the World Series -- and win it. . . . I'll take our chances with our team here.
biggest came depending might prepared says sean win worked year
It says a lot about him. This year hasn't worked out for Sean the way he wanted it to, but he's not going to give in. He came out and prepared himself. Depending on how it pans out, it might be the biggest win so far.

It's a huge win, hopefully it does turn things around for us. It's good for us to just win a game. We have struggled at home.

Jake's the kind of competitor who knows every time he takes the ball that he's going to win a baseball game for his team, ... When he's pitching, one or two runs could win you a baseball game. Not everybody brings that to the table.

(The sweep) was disappointing, but only because we know we can play better baseball than that.
amazes makeup says
The thing that amazes me most is he's only 24 years old. You don't have that makeup too often at that young an age. For him to go out and do what he did says a lot about him.

I've always admired the way he plays. He'll help us defensively and give us some right-handed power. I'm excited about playing with Mike.

dream expect goal lead lose main obviously offense pieces shown stuff team
You dream of this stuff as a kid. Obviously this is one step. Our goal is to be world champions, and we expect nothing less. We're going to go out there and battle. I think one thing this team has shown is it has a lot of character. You don't lose main pieces to your offense and still have a four-, five-, six-game lead pretty much the whole year.
against good opens pressure record whoever
Whoever opens up against us, if we get there, is going to have a lot of pressure on them because our record is not going to be as good as some of the other records.
