It was cool, and very exciting to walk through the fans, giving high-fives. It was pretty cool watching the [2005 highlight] video on the board. It was special.

Mark my words: we're going to put up a lot of runs this year.

It would have been nice to get those guys in [in the first], but it just didn't happen. We had eight more innings to get runs in.

Yeah, we show up four or five hours early so we are pretty dedicated fans. We honestly think we have a really good chance to beat Washington, if we play our game. We have amazing talent. It's just if we click or not.

Our fans are pretty respectful. They can get a little nutty.

It was unbelievable. That's not how Kansas City fans are. They're pretty hardcore. It was amazing the reception we got. It was neat to see the people honor New York. I think it will probably be a lot like that here. I hope so. I would assume that our fans will do the same thing.
