This place has been very good to our team. A bunch of our fans cannot get tickets in Boston. For them to come down on a weekend and take part in this, that says a lot.

I know what's going on in Boston. I know fans are upset and I'm sorry.

This is Boston, ... You're going to have roller coasters. We need to climb to the top.

I fell in love with Boston, so hopefully, I'll be here for a long time.

Sad to say bye to some of the greatest fans in the world.

(Red Sox) fans are going to be upset. I hope they remember the great World Series and the three out of four years we made the playoffs. I appreciate them. I tried to come back.
