On that one I was just trying to hit a sacrifice fly. I got behind it and hit it pretty well.

I was just looking for a ball over the plate and get it into the air (for a sacrifice fly), ... The worst thing you can do is hit a ground ball.

They both had to sacrifice, but they finally understood what I was trying to do.

You hear [the Red Sox players'] perspective on that series. They look at that ALCS as a great series. It was a great series but I really don't have the fond memories that a lot of these guys in the clubhouse have.

[Maine] had three pitches he was throwing that he looked like he had confidence to throw in any count, ... We really hit the ball a couple of times right at guys.

He came up and in, and I?m just protecting the plate right there. I did a good job of getting the bat to the ball and got a little help from the wind.
