This is out of the blue. Everything you could have messed up, we messed up out there. These guys have played terrific defense all year, so it's very uncharacteristic.
The White Sox execute small ball probably better than anybody in our league,
This game, with its twists and turns, could have gone either way. This is the way the series is going to be.
This game, with its twists and turns, could have gone either way for the whole nine innings. It could have turned on a dime.
This game was out of the blue, ... Everything we could have messed up, we messed up out there. It was so out of character for us.
Our defense has been there all year for us. This is out of the blue, really. Everything you could've messed up, we messed up out there.
There's no question what he does for a lineup. He can make your lineup deeper. It's not going to relate to 12 runs every night, but tonight we got some runners on and drove them in. Vlad was in the middle of everything.
There's no indication that there is any damage in there that would impact him moving forward. They're going to do some tests, and we'll get a better idea this week exactly what his status is. I think as soon as he came out, it was pretty ominous and pretty obvious that he wasn't going to be able to help us in this series.
Adam Kennedy is the best defensive second baseman in our league.
I don't think there's one thing you can hang your hat on and say you won or lost with. The two walks and the ball in center field that dropped obviously were bigger contributors in that inning than the missed call on the check swing. We just set the table for them and you can't do that to a club like the Red Sox. They're too powerful.
I don't think there's any way to sugarcoat it, our offense has been soft.
I don't think the replay is anything that we should bring into the game.
I don't think anything is grim in the clubhouse, ... (The players) know that once we getting going offensively this thing turns on a heartbeat.
I don't think the umpiring in this game is why we're behind 3-1.
