I'm going to kick back and watch some baseball. I'm not ready to commit. Even being at home and pitching in Houston was a tough grind. ... Right now, I'm not interested in getting in there and locking in on this. If it works out and I can just fade away, that's what's going to happen.

I want to go watch it again, just to look at the details of everything that happened,

I'm sure we'll probably be an underdog. But we've been that before.
I'm sure they could hide me in the outfield. Why not?
I'm sure proud of the guys. It's been a lot of work for us. How 'bout the kid?
