We need him to get back to the form he was last year. We know he can do that. |
We need that. We've really struggled all season long in the seven, eighth and ninth (spots). No one was consistent there. |
We never thought we would hit 200 home runs. You have to execute, especially in (playoff) games. You're going to win a lot of games by one run. |
We played great baseball. Our fans have had so much patience. We did this for them. |
We really lost two games where we didn't have a chance. |
We score more than five runs and this is what I have to deal with. |
We showed White Sox fans and everybody in baseball that we weren't happy with just what we did last year. |

We talked about this all week and I felt like I let Duque down. I'm not trying to hurt my pitcher's feelings, but we had a plan before the game starts. Duque didn't throw the ball the way we like him to throw the ball. Most of the balls that got hit were hit hard. We thought he was going to give me four, five, six innings to get McCarthy ready to go. Our plans didn't work. |
We thought he had a good secondary lead so Joey (Cora, third base coach) took a chance and sent him. It took a good throw like that to get him. |

We thought our shot with Betancourt was better. |
We tried to get something done. I think he (Contreras) feels comfortable here and I don't think things are going to bother him. Jose is a tough man. He knows what he is doing, especially where he comes from. |
We trust him and believe in him. He was so insecure. The thing about Jose was, he don't want to let people down. When he signed a big contract, people talked about how much money he made, he should win every game. |
We waited so many years for this opening day and that flag. |
