anybody eventually pitchers room runs score team walks work
That's the way this team works. We score a lot of runs in one inning because we work pitchers and work walks and eventually there is no room to put anybody else.
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.
anytime guy missing piece team throws
He's a big part of this team offensively. Every guy in this lineup is an All-Star, and anytime you're missing that big a piece of the puzzle, especially the way we've kind of got it going offensively, it kind of throws you off a little bit.
adding team
If we didn't keep adding on runs, they would have come back on us. That team doesn't quit.
champions given good seems team win
We have to go play what seems like the World Champions in Tampa. We have to win every day, and we're going to play the team that's actually given us the most problems. We have to play good baseball.
bunch guy helps nobody team took
It helps that pretty much every guy on this team has postseason experience. We're a pretty even-keel bunch of guys. Even when they took the lead, nobody panicked.

easily great huge team turned
It was huge for us. They've got a great team over there, and we could have easily turned this thing into a disaster.
baseball game teams totally
I know we like to think baseball is America's game, but that isn't totally true. There are some teams out there that can play this game pretty well.
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.
