Pitching in the first game was obviously an issue. It's something we need to work on. I have to find some guys that can give me some good innings.

I was very encouraged with the power in the second game. Nick had a couple of nice hits in game two and did a nice job at third base defensively for us.

We got to pick up the defense.

When you work hard to do everything you can to win, it's disappointing when you lose. It eats at you a little... It's hard to put into words what being back in the playoffs means. Anybody who's competitive all year long wants the opportunity to have a chance to get in the Super Bowl.

I think the governor has come to the realization he has to work with communities other than the city of Chicago.

That's why we call it a test event. There are still some things to work out.
