We had some opportunities tonight, but we just couldn't finish when we needed to. That's something that luckily we will get a chance to correct [tonight] when we play them again.

It was a lot of fun tonight. You could start to feel the tension in the air. You don't say anything about the no-hitter but me and (second baseman) Tony (Thomas, Jr.) were both saying we are laying out for anything within 30 feet of us. It was a lot of fun.

This was a lot of fun. It was great to get out here and hear the fans. It was a little unreal at first. I just tried to stay within myself tonight and make the game as simple as possible.

No man can be a genius in slapshoes and a flat hat.

I've simply been brought up being knocked down.

Life is too serious to do farce comedy.
