That's what I'm talking about. |
The guys on his team are going to know that the manager at the end of the bench has done a lot of homework on the opposing team and should translate into many wins, |
There'd have to be a lot of talking to convince me to come back, Much less than that. |
They talk about payroll and who gets paid what, ... (But) you still got to do it, and it's human beings doing it. There's no robots. And it just so happens that the other team in the other dugout wants to kick your butt, too. And (the Angels) can be pretty good, which they are. And we're standing in the parking lot. |
This could be really exciting. Maybe before I die it ends up being a rival to the soccer World Cup. |
This is exciting, ... I've been lucky. I've had a career where every organization I've played for has always put together a team that's really legitimate and had a chance of winning coming out of Spring Training every year. |
This is one of the main reasons why I wanted to come back. I like the idea of the [Classic], so instead of squashing the idea and talking about all of the [concerns] in a negative light, why not look at this in terms of being something good for the game? |
This is what I was hoping for. I think the tournament is a great thing for baseball and I really wanted to be a part of it. If it ends up being the last time I pitch I would be very satisfied with that. This was one of the big reasons I decided to keep playing. |
Tom and Shirley were like Julie McCoy on the Love Boat. We'd go to their room every night for a cocktail party before dinner. |
We didn't get it done, ... That was a big surprise and a feeling of shock. |
We were in a bad spot going to Game 5, ... And we put ourselves in a bad moment. But everybody felt good about what the outcome should have been or what we thought it would have been. I don't want to say (the plane ride was) sad. But it was about as depressing a room as I've ever seen. |
When I first got here, I was in a position of no position, |
When you've got kids old enough to respond and tell you what they think, that plays a big part, ... My son's thinking it's pretty cool, playing with A-Rod and Jeter and all these guys, so he'd probably vote to stay. |
Who knows after this is up what happens. |
You know, ... I can pitch out there, too. |
