First happened, I thought Josh Paul threw the ball to the mound like he caught it. It's a heads up play by A.J. to run to first base like that.
We didn't really want to make a big deal, ... We didn't win the World Series. We're just getting in the postseason. We've got a lot of work ahead of us. If we win the World Series or we win the American League Championship, then we can act like that.
I like to get out in the woods as much as I can to get my mind away from baseball and kind of get away from everything. It's nice to get out there and listen to everything, the wildlife and the smells.
Never say never in this game because crazy stuff can happen.
Everybody wants to be a professional baseball player and, sure, as a kid, I wanted to do that. But once I got cut from my high school team, I figured there wasn't much chance of that ever happening. I'm still in awe of it.
I've been doing that for four years. He said, 'You've got to come to first.' I don't know how I didn't since I threw the ball there. That's a big deal. It goes from 2-0 to 5-0.
The way Buehrle pitched, it seemed like they didn't need no signs,'' Guillen said.
Ever since the All-Star break, it seems like I haven't had too many good games. It's frustrating. We've still got six games with Cleveland. And the way that they're playing, they could sweep us right now. If we keep on playing like we're playing, we're not going to the playoffs. We'll be home on Oct. 3.
Everything is going our way. The balls are landing our way, the calls are going our way and we're getting that big hit when we need it. Everything you look at, how can't we win this thing? But we still have two more games to win.
Being a starting pitcher, you want to go out there and get as many runs early as you can. It happened a lot early in the season, and then the offense had been struggling lately. But any time you get a couple of runs early, it's nice to work with.
Being a starting pitcher, you want to be a 20-game winner. Every year you come into spring training hoping to get to that part. I've always said if I win five games and the team wins 90 percent of my starts, that's all I can hope for, give my team the best chance to win.
The team that struggles on the road or the one that uses the light in center field? Something's strange. They don't play so good on the road, and at home everybody's Babe Ruth.
I wanted to go back out there for a couple more innings. My pitch count was down, and it was the best I've felt all spring.
Down in the bullpen everything was working for me. Pretty much in that situation, you got the Adrenalin going and if your arm is hurting or whatever, once you get on the mound. ... I was pretty loose. I can throw 15 or 20 pitches and be ready to go.
