The people who watch this stuff knew that this was going to be a rough spring. But I didn't think it would go this high.

This was a very big game for us. We don't want to scoreboard watch too much, but we knew the Giants had won (in Washington). Jake is our staff ace, and he is our stopper. When he takes the mound, we expect to win baseball games.

If people are given quality stuff to watch, they'll watch it.

I don't like to have people do stuff for me. I don't like to have runners go out and get me meals - it's just not normal.

I tuned that all out. Obviously, there was a lot of stuff going on. But it was just a spring training game to me. It was fun for the Latin crowd.

We knew that (working in New Orleans) was going to be rough and we were all ready to buck up and do what had to be done. In all of our imagination, we had no idea (the city) was going to be such a disaster.
