I feel I let my team down today. My heart is bleeding for everybody else. I felt like I should have gotten it done today. That's how it is. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.
Keep winning and get to the postseason, I won 20 games and they just dumped one beer on my head. It feels good because I'm helping my team win.
Everything he meant to his team and the city,
We seem to have done anything and everything to let a team back in the game, including myself.
I don't even really care, to be totally honest. I'm really concerned about the lineup. I know I'm not betting on getting any hits off him, I'm just trying to keep the game as close as I can to give my team a chance.
I am still excited to be here, but I am not playing the best baseball that I know I can play. I hope we can advance so I can get another shot of helping the team win. My work has been good but the results just aren't there.
It definitely hurts, because I felt like I let my team down. I have to find a way to get outs late in the game, especially when they're making a charge.
I can't fathom having this many wins. But today was definitely a team effort.
He's a great fit for our team because we're very young and enthusiastic ourselves. He's almost like a player, running around touching bases and everything.
Keep winning and get to the postseason, ... I won 20 games and they just dumped one beer on my head. It feels good because I'm helping my team win.
He's very enthusiastic. The last few days he's been running around, trying to help the catchers. Things like that. I think that's a great fit for our team because we're very young and enthusiastic ourselves. He's almost like a player, running around touching base and everything.
We should win it, most definitely. Every team should feel they have a chance to win, or they shouldn't come out. I don't want to be around guys who don't want to win. We're all in it because we want to win.
I'm dumbfounded right now, very ecstatic just because of how my teammates felt for me today, ... They were pulling for me. I'm kind of breathtaken. It's historic. It's a beautiful thing, not only for baseball but for my team.
