I think we had four great games. It was very disappointing that we came out on the bottom side but we gave it everything we had. We gave everything we had for (the fans).
Just seeing it in spring training was something that was pretty special. We wanted the winning one, and hopefully we can turn that around and maybe get one.
I think it was more their destiny than ours.
I think those guys aren't so young anymore,
He?s been phenomenal. He?s been a huge contributor for us and a big lift.
Our fans are fired up, and it's great to have an opportunity to have another round with the Cardinals. We have another chance, we have a shot at it. There's only so many that you get. Coming from where we've come from, and to have a chance at this again, it's pretty special.
Overall everyone swung the bats and did everything right,
If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have a team, ... He kept the team in Houston. A lot of people don't understand that.
Some guy in the crowd was trying to be funny and he slapped her upside the head, acting like a 12-year-old, and he ran, ... It was his misfortune that he messed with a Jersey girl. She chased him down and caught him.
My thoughts are to get the team into the wild card and to the post-season again and hopefully the World Series.
I just hope this all gets worked out some way. That's my boy. I hope he's given an opportunity to go to spring training. I love this guy, and he's made a lot of sacrifices for this city and organization.
That's an unbelievable team that we just beat, ... and it's just a great feeling right now and it just goes to show you that we just never gave up.
The key to our success this year is obviously not from our offense. It's from our pitching and defense. We made some plays when we had to. Brunt made a great play. This is the kind of baseball we're accustomed to playing this year. We bounced back and played a little better today.
I just wanted to get to a World Series one time. We never gave up, we kept battling.
