I like to dance and sing when there's no one around, but, if I'm out, I'm really shy about it. So it takes a lot to get me going, but I enjoy being around music.

The last thing you need when you're not going well is to look over and see panic on your manager's face. With Joe, he always looks like he's in control. I mean, from being around him so long, I can tell when he's angry. But panic, that's something you'll never see from him.

You can't say you're embarrassed because they're major-league players as well. It's just one of those things you can't explain. They've played better than us. They deserved to beat us. They've played better in almost every area of the game.

It was a little scary when he starting throwing punches, ... I was scared. I didn't want to get hit.

He never throws the ball straight, ... He just has nasty stuff, especially when he faces me.

It's always easier to hit when it's a low-scoring game and your pitcher is doing the job. It all starts with pitching. Our offense got so much publicity early on, but pitching is the most important thing.
