Being as everyone's picking us last, we'll surprise some people. If we finish last, we'll surprise ourselves.

What a great defensive stand here at the end. Michael Young sealed the deal for us. It's a great victory for our players. They worked hard and they deserve it.

This is a big victory for us.

It's just more special. Getting called up in the middle of the season, you're just filling a void at that time. But to be one of 25 guys on the roster to start a year, it feels better. You feel like you're more a part of everything from the get-go.

It was cold last night when we walked out to the bullpen before the game, and when we walked in after the game, it felt 20 degrees colder.

We did the job just right. We gave the offense a chance to come back and they did. When the team thing works like that, it's a great feeling.
