Most teams going into something like this would be uptight. We're just trying to stay relaxed. We joke during warm-ups ... stay loose.

I don't know if I'm going to cry. I'm holding my head strong, and I think that might continue. You just gotta go on.

They bring another thing to the dimension. They like to run like we do.

It's going to be like any other one. During the game, it's not going to be anything we haven't done before.

That stall play worked. They were able to get the lead on us and we were never able to hit the shots.

It's amazing in this game, the less you try to do, the better results you have. All I was trying to do was get on base -- whatever, a walk, a chopper, base hit, just to get something going. Then I hit one out of the ballpark. I was shocked.
