They played better baseball than us. There's no sugarcoating it. They deserved to win. |
They're a completely different team (than Tampa Bay). |
They're all special. It seems like the season hasn't really officially started until we play our home opener. |
They've been outstanding. They've just stepped in and done the job. |
They've got a good team. I know their record doesn't say it, but they've got guys that are really starting to play well. They have a lot of confidence, especially against us. They have guys who know how to play. |
This doesn't happen too often. We were right in the position we want to be in in the ninth inning, with Mo. Even when they got the first couple of guys on, we still like our chances. ... He made a good pitch, the guy just found a hole. |
This doesn't mean anything, ... if we don't play well [tonight]. |
This is a team we have to figure out. |
This is a team we have to figure out. They're not going to just go away, they've proved that to us. |
This time of year, ... you're playing on adrenaline anyway. |

Those are situations we need to come through in. Those are big. This time of year, especially, you've got to take advantage. |
Those are situations you have to come through. Because two-out hits are pretty clutch. |
Tired, fatigued, that doesn't play a role at this point in the season. You'd love to play at home, don't get me wrong, but you've got to play well on the road to win, too. |
Two-out hits are pretty clutch, ... You have to find a way to come through in those situations. |
