We had to answer to the media after the game, no matter what. There were obviously a lot of games last year, more than any in the past, that I would have rather just gone home as soon as the game ended, just sneak out of the clubhouse and not even show my face, but that's not the way you're supposed to do it. You've got to be a professional, and that's part of it. That's how I was taught when I came up. |
We watched tons of film, and I couldn't see much of a difference of what we could come up with, |
We've been playing the way we should. We are a good ballclub. ... We can build on this, finish the year strong and look forward to next year. |
We've got quality pitchers. When you have that and you have our offense, that's a good combination. ... Once we get on a roll and get clicking - we're doing well now, but I think it's only going to get better. |
