Roger pitched a Roger game. They got two great pitching performances and we haven't been able to score. But if we win tomorrow, we're even. There's a lot of games left to play.
I think this was a great game for both teams, I really do.
Tony did a great job of putting the pieces together all year. To play as well as we have with all the injuries, it just makes this a great team victory.
It's a pretty big honor, obviously. A lot of great players. I don't know if I've been here long enough to really deserve it, but I don't really know how many guys played here that long. But it's an honor.
He was outstanding, ... When we got guys on base he made the pitches. He pitched a great game.
He didn't really seem reserved or cautious or anything else about it. We know it's important to other people, and we hope that they remember all the great things that he did here.
I had a chance. Carlos made a great play on Juan. I thought I hit the ball pretty good, but it just didn't go anywhere. I feel bad for Jeff. Jeff pitched a pretty good game, and two big errors, they scored two runs.
Because he's a good player - he's got great defense, a good arm, runs the bases well and just plays it right.
Our fans are the biggest key for us, that's where we get our energy from. Really the ballpark is just secondary right now for us, it's the fans that make a difference.

Really, the ballpark is secondary for us. It's the fans that will hopefully put us over the top.
I was trying to hit on top of the ball. That was making me hit the ball out front. I did it so much it turned into my swing. That's not me. When I hit the ball to left-center field, I'm not trying to hit it there. It's just my natural swing.
I was trying to figure out where the balls and strikes and the outs are posted today. Those are things you get comfortable with as a player. When you have to start looking for them all over again, it takes some adjusting.
It doesn't mean anything unless we win tomorrow night.
