They keep everyone loose. That was something I thought about when I signed back here.

This is all geared toward addressing some of their concerns, or as many as we thought we could.

Yeah, but I stunk today. I wanted to go back out for the third, but [Gardenhire] didn't want me to, so whatever. The team battled back. The bullpen did an outstanding job. Joe [Mays] came in and did an outstanding job. We didn't quit.

It's to the point where ... it just drives you crazy,

When you turn 90, you've done something right. Hopefully I can even come close to that.

We need to win a lot of games. It's good to win, especially in extra innings with this heat.
