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.
adversity face fall love man players somebody stand tall ticking tough town
Every New Yorker, they love to see somebody face adversity and still stand tall and not fall by the wayside. They like to see you man up and you take your beating, but you just keep going and ticking and keep working hard. And they love those stories. It's a tough town here, it really is, and a lot of players fall by the wayside out here.
everybody shows special though together tough yankees
It just shows how tough it is. It shows how special it was, what the Yankees accomplished before we got here. Even though we have 25 stars, we're together - that's why everybody comes to the Yankees, to win.
toughest trying year
This has probably been the toughest year in my big-league career, trying to come back from everything.
against ball beat club easily gotten last pitcher taste turned turns veteran
Without the veteran ball club we have, we could have very easily gotten swept, especially against a pitcher like Brad. They beat Mo last night, and this could have turned into a disaster. You give away a game, then get beat, and it turns into something bad. We got the taste out of our mouths.
adding beat fortunate huge kept
This was huge especially after the way they beat us yesterday. They don't quit. It's fortunate we kept adding on and didn't let them come back.
came hopefully win
This was a big win for us, especially the way we came back. Hopefully it can get us going a little bit.
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.
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.
letting
We've been close. They're letting us know we need to get over the top.
gotta
We had our shots. You gotta come up with that big hit. And we haven't come up with it yet.
coming driving finally guys knew matter offense relax time
We all knew it was only a matter of time before the offense started to come around. I think guys finally started to relax a little bit. Now we're coming up with that big hit, driving in that big run.
