He thought it was kind of funny. He said he's known now. I told him he could probably go to Hollywood now and become a movie star.
Two good pitching staffs going at it. Hopefully it is a low-scoring game,
We've got to continue to battle and not put pressure on ourselves.
We're trying to win series. You feed off everything, and we're all doing well. It's an all-around team effort.
What we play is a National League-style of baseball. This is the way baseball should be played.

It feels unbelievable. This is an exciting moment, ... It's something I never will forget.
