batting encouraged encouragement excited few friend good great guy hitter include johnny last natural next places preferred presence return sign spoke strongly teammate week whose year
Johnny and I spoke a few times over the last week and I strongly encouraged him to sign with the Yankees. It is good to know that our lineup next year will include a natural leadoff hitter whose presence allows Jeter and A-Rod to return to their preferred places in the batting order. Johnny is a good friend and a great guy to have in the clubhouse. I am very excited about having him as a teammate again.
battle behind coming fall far giving next rut turns win
We know it's still early, but you don't want to fall as far behind and get in that rut where you have to battle back. You don't want to find yourself coming to the ballpark, giving away a win and then the next day, you get beat. Before you know it, it turns into something bad.
coming giving next win
You don't want to find yourself coming to the ballpark, giving away a win and then the next day, you get beat.
enjoying guy minute single tough
We just wanted to get in. It's been such a long, tough year. I know everyone in here is enjoying every single minute of this. Especially for a guy like me, and where I started. It's unbelievable.
ability bit changed last lift
We changed it up a little bit (from last year) because my ability to lift was already there. I had that base. We started squatting right away, lunging.
doubt games good offense win
We're going to win some games with our offense, no doubt about it. Our offense is too good not to win.
helped shot
The shot has helped me a lot, ... I had tendinitis.
game great heart kid people players prove realize seen special takes triple whatever
People don't realize this game is not fair. I've seen some great players who, for whatever reason, never got the opportunity. To keep going back to Triple A, when you know in your heart you have nothing to prove there, it takes a special kid to do that.
gotta
We had our shots. You gotta come up with that big hit. And we haven't come up with it yet.
responsibility
I've learned that you have to take responsibility for yourself in this game and lead yourself through it.
change coming johnny knows pressure
Coming from Boston, one thing you know about Johnny is that he's not going to be intimidated in New York. He knows what pressure is and he's not going to let it change him.
You get to the plate and nothing is going through your mind. You see the ball, you see the seams.
ask doubt figured good
You figured they would come back. They're hot, we're hot, so it should be a good series. You couldn't ask for a better ending, no doubt about it.
