Forget the veterans. They haven't told me anything, and they better not come tell me anything, either. |
He almost got it, but I got it over him, |
He hit a ground ball, I jumped. I said, 'Throw it to home plate, make one out.' I think I had a chance, but it was a bad throw. |
He threw a fastball down the middle, and I think I can hit that. I hit it pretty good. |
I don't want to put so much pressure on myself. I want to do like I did last year, play my game. I'm going to play hard. I'm not going to put pressure on myself. We're all going to have to play hard. |
I feel good about that. I don't want to leave this team. I want to be on this team for a long time because they gave me my first opportunity in the big leagues. I've never thought that next year I'm going to arbitration and I'm going to make a lot of money. I just have to keep playing baseball the way I have to play. |
I have to do it year after year, ... Not just one or two years. |
I thought it was going to hit the (scoreboard) he hit it so hard. |
I was going to home plate to make the one out. I thought it was the right choice, but it was a bad throw. |
I was thinking, 'Whoa,' ... I say to myself, 'I better watch out. I've got to be ready.' |
I'm happy. You have to put up your numbers every year and see what happens. My time is coming, you know? |
I've played hurt. But this is the knee. I can't (move it around). |
It doesn't look like Pettitte was having a very good start, but I'm not surprised our guys got after him. |
It happens sometimes, ... I feel bad. It's not going to happen again. When you're late, you see what happens. |
It's a strange situation, but we need to be ready and just play. |
