It can't be just three or four guys, it has to be the whole lineup to do the job. That's the only way we can win.

I take my hat off to them. Even though they weren't in the race, they played hard.

I'm proud of these players. They gave it everything they had.

I hoped they learned from playing in the pennant race, from coming back from where we did. They learned the little things you have to do to win.

We've been up and down, and finally we got to where we'd like to be. It just depends on how badly they want it. I think if we win (today), it will be something to talk about all our lives.

We've been playing well, and we got some guys at the middle of the season who have helped us.
