[Quotable:] We are the first team to come back from a 12-run deficit in 76 years. It ties the biggest comeback in Major League history. In 1911, the Chicago White Sox did it. In 1925, the Philadelphia Athletics scored 13 runs in the eighth to win a game 17-15. The Philly comeback took place against -- you guessed it -- the Cleveland Indians. So I'd say our win over the M's was poetic justice. ... Omar! My Life On and Off the Field |
After being here last year and being here this year, I think it's two different teams, as far as chemistry and guys getting along. I see more smiles on people's faces. |
After being out for so long now he's going to come back and he his going to feel that kind of pain, the aching of the muscles and all that. I think it's just part of the game and part of the human body. ... He's 41. Every year it's a lot harder. I think it's just how he's feeling right now. When you get used to the groove again, the traveling and everything else, you're body starts feeling the same. |
Doing all this crazy stuff is what makes the coaches and managers consider voting for you, |
Every time I get a hit right now it means a lot because I'm not swinging the bat real well. I'm getting better, seeing more pitches and hopefully I can get in a groove. |
Every time I get a hit right now it means a lot. I'm getting better and seeing more pitches, being more patient. Hopefully I can find my groove. |
Everybody behind Barry is going to be a little busy. I'm glad Mo is healthy, and he's going to have a lot of fun driving those guys home. |
Everybody knows what he can do. Personally, I'm one of those players who came here to watch him play. Finally, the moment has come. Being on the field with him is going to be exciting. |
Everybody will know the kind of player he is, and everybody will know, especially with runners in scoring position, not to give him the freedom to drive in runs. As much pride as you have, you still want to win the game. |
Everything Barry Bonds says is multiplied. People talk about everything and every comment he makes. I'm pretty sure other players have said (they're retiring) too, and people don't even care. 'Oh, you are? Good luck.' But this is Barry Bonds. |
He should've given it to us because of the way he was pitching. |
He was a big factor in my decision to come here, to be on a team with one of the greatest home run hitters in the history of the game, ... There is no doubt that if he was here from the beginning it would be a different story for this team. |
He works fast. He throws a lot of strikes. That's what an infielder loves. It gets you into the game. |
He's the kind of guy who can come back after a two- or three-month period and do what he's used to doing. |
He's way better than I thought he'd be. He was a good player, but I didn't know he had that kind of power. He's been tremendous for us. He has power, gets on base and can run. |
