Everything had to work perfectly on that double play, and it did. It was an unbelievable ending.
Mac originally drafted me in 1987, ... He and Yogi came to Seton Hall and watched me work out one day. Ever since then there's been a special bond. Over the years it got better and better to the point where he was almost like a father figure. He was such a great man. A lot of people didn't get a chance to see that side of him.
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.
I'm glad it worked out and happened at home and my family was here, and the fans. At least we can take something positive out of it today.
We just go out and do what we're told, and he's really making all the right moves. He's just really doing a great job.
I very easily could have popped it up, but I was able to square it up and we get out of here with another win.
It would be nice to save him for last and then the fans could go crazy for two or three minutes.
It would have been nicer if it was off someone else, I can tell you that, ... But we'll take the win any way we can get it.
They all do the same thing, ... All of them, they just know how to set up hitters. They strike you out when they need a strikeout. It's just amazing to watch them pitch.
They all count. Anyway you can take it, take it.
We didn't know this kid and he's been pitching real well for them and they're real high on him,
We had some bad angles. Overthrowing the cutoff man. You can't do that. Tonight was just a bad night.
Bobby Cox is one of the greatest managers of all time,
This one has to rank up there as maybe the best, coming from a long way back. That just tells a lot about the guys in this clubhouse.
