bat god help hit playing
I just said, 'God, this at bat is my first one (in the playoffs) and we've got to take a lead. We're playing away and if you can help me I can get a hit in this at-bat right here,'
looked third
I looked at third base. I made a mistake.
close hit looking throws time trying
I know he throws a fastball, and for the first time I just said I was looking for the fastball. I was just trying to hit anything close to the plate.
baseball looking loves
I know he loves his fastball, ... So I just said, 'OK, I'm looking for fastballs.'
god hit home line run runs season
I don't think I'm a home run hitter. Most of my home runs are line drives. If I hit it, thanks God. But it's not the kind of thing that I think about. I just go out there and try to have a better season than I had before. Home runs are not in my mind.
maybe ready sitting win
I don't think I'm going to play. Maybe they'd use me once in a while, but I want to win a world championship. If I go there, I'll be sitting on the bench, and I want to get ready for the season.

I want to win a World Series, so I'm going down to spring training and get ready for the season.

He's always on me to stay out of trouble.
game great saw
He's got great stuff. I saw him in the Futures Game in 2004, and he's very good. He's going to be a great pitcher.
decide ok whatever
Whatever they decide to do is OK with me. There's nothing I can do.
food great heights including latin playing reminds special strong surrounded washington york
Playing in New York is special to me because you are surrounded by so many communities and a strong Latin community, including the Washington Heights neighborhood. I come to Washington Heights for real Dominican food that reminds me of my hometown, and it's a great place to visit.
asked god runs
I asked God, 'If we can get two runs here,' ... 'that would be great.'
good remember
He's got a good fastball. I just remember one strikeout with two fastballs and a curveball.
attention deal pay stay swing whatever
I don't pay any attention to that. Whatever happens, I've got to deal with it. I'm going to do the same thing I've been doing, try to stay back and swing at strikes.
