It's a big blow. It makes it a little tougher to make a serious run at things.

It was really a nice moment for me to put us ahead and to contribute first day back. I haven't felt the calf in a week. I felt good. There weren't any inhibitions about moving around the bases.

It opens a realm of possibilities, but it doesn't ever prevent the fact that those guys are superstars. They're going to come up big in big moments like they always do.

We tried pretty much everything to get something going, some sort of a pitch going. It was a tough day for him.

We tried just about everything, but it was just a tough day for him. I'm sure he'll be lights out next time.
good job learn
We're going to have to get better offensively. If we end up with the same lineup as we had this year, we're going to have to get better at what we do. We're going to learn how to manufacture runs, something I don't think we did a real good job of this year.

bats great guy hat heck mike run swing tip
We didn't swing the bats well today, but I think that had more to do with Mike than anything else. He pitched a heck of a game. Sometimes you run into a guy like that, that has a great day and you tip your hat to him.

everybody expected focus gotten hit home job likes runs single tears
This is a first for me. I never expected to hit 10 home runs in a year. Two tears I ago I would have never thought I would have gotten that many at-bats. All I want to do is contribute. A single or a home run - everybody likes to hit. But I know in the end my job is to focus on defense.
ball character darn giving good overall three
I thought overall he was pretty darn good today. He really showed a lot of character after giving up three in the first inning to keep us in that ball game.

Holding a team like the Yankees to three runs, I'll take my chances any day.
coming confidence key matter time
He's getting better every time and he's coming very quickly, ... Confidence is going to be a key thing for him down the road, but that will come as well. It's just a matter of time.
