We're happy to be on that flight last night. It's just something that's part of what we have to do.
came everybody game guys happy hard hear locker night serious single took word
I know every single one of those guys was happy to be there and was happy to join. I know that word will get out to other guys that this is something you want to do. I tell you what, we took it serious. The game the other night when we lost, you didn't hear a word in the locker room. Everybody was disappointed. We took it serious and went out there hard but we just came up short.

I'm happy where I'm at right now pitching the seventh, eighth inning ... doing my job and then watching Francisco (Rodriguez) come in and do his job. I'll be his setup man for the rest of my career. That's fine with me. I'm perfectly fine where I am.

The starters are what make our team better. Our starting rotation is a lot better than what it was in 2002 -and you've got a right fielder who makes us a little better, too.
best chance guys hit might nice spot tough turn wish
That's a tough spot to put yourself into, with one of the best RBI guys ever. I wish he would have hit it a little harder. We might have had a chance to turn two. But Figgins made a nice play just to get the one out and keep it a one-run game.

I was pumped. It is an honor to be on the same team with the rest of those players.

coming far sit tough week
You know, it's been a pretty tough week on us with the schedule, but it's something that we like. We like to travel, especially coming out here, and we're still playing. As far as a much-needed day off, I think most of us are going to just sit around and rest.
wish
I wish we could go out there and play again, ... I wish this was a doubleheader.
everybody few frankie giving good guys innings knows lead looking past seventh strong throwing
If we have a lead in the seventh inning and you're throwing him two innings and Frankie one, we're looking pretty good, ... Everybody knows what Escobar can do, and he's giving guys like myself and Brendan Donnelly some rest. And if you look at what we've done the past few weeks, we're as strong as we've ever been. That's a pretty good thing to have.

I got lucky, ... It caught too much of the plate, and I was glad he didn't swing at it.
