expect knows win
We have to go out and expect to win every game. I think everyone knows it's our job.
best extended game great leaving randy ready stretch wish
Worst-case scenario, we would have been only one game up leaving here. Three?s all right. We wish we could have extended it, but Randy pitched a great game, as did Wake. That?s the best Randy?s been all year. He?s getting ready for the stretch drive.
close win
We're going to get better. We need to know how to win those close games.
drink happy people positive start tested threw
I just think people want to start something with anybody. I'd be more than happy to take any test. There's no way. If I tested positive for something, it's going to be because someone threw something in a drink or did something like that.
fall
I really think they wanted me to fall on my face. There was too much of me, I guess; the commercials, the magazines. They had other plans.
boys relax
I'll get to see my boys and get to relax a little.
ball needed played power small
I look at them as a power team. They played small ball when they needed to because they could.
manage
I know how to manage little injuries. I can get through this.
hate seeing yankee
I know how it works. They hate seeing a Yankee uniform.
game help jumping remembered series
I know I'll always be remembered for Game 7 to help get us to the World Series and I know I'm also going to be remembered for jumping sides.
cheers fans heard meant
I heard a lot more cheers than jeers. Regardless, I wanted to do it because these fans meant so much to me.
captain hitting since waiting win
I just know I've been waiting for this ever since I signed. To win like that, with the Captain hitting a homer. It's something I'll take with me forever.
heard planned
I planned on doing it if I heard enough cheering, and I did.
extend knew starts tomorrow
In the past, we always knew we had to make up ground. Now we need to extend our ground. Hopefully, that starts tomorrow night.
