"A win is a win, and that's good. That's what we set out to do. It wasn't easy, but it ended up good."

“The excitement level will be off the charts. You'll see a lot of guys running to the ballpark. I might jog.”

“We don't need to have meetings. We know where we are … there's some guys in there that have been in this situation before. And the best way I think all of us know to go about our business is to play the next game. Put that on our radar and try and take care of the next game. You start trying to look ahead, it can look a little overwhelming. Just play the game that's in front of us, and that's the only thing that matters right now.”

“You get to the ninth inning and your stomach is clear up to here. But it's not because of your job. It is because you want to win so badly.”
