An older club tends to get it together later than a young club. Just like spring training. Young guys, two weeks, they're ready to go. Where the older guys, it takes them longer to get their timing.

This late in the spring, you're more apprehensive than anything. He said it was mild. He felt it on one of his pitches -- he sort of winced.

You know it's there, but you don't really see it. Guys don't discuss it or talk about it much. It's something you have little control over. I'm sure some guys are conscious of it and aware of it, but until it happens, you can't do anything about it.

It's unbelievable. I've been with the Major League club in spring training, so I'm used to that. But this is just an amazing feeling.

It's a great run by Greg. The guys really wanted to win for him. We left him out there to give him a chance ... to win.

You're playing against guys who are younger than you, so you can set them up. You get to a certain point in your career and you almost know what's coming. You learn to trust your feelings. Hank Aaron told me you don't become a great player until you learn to trust your feelings.
