You know, when you look at that, yeah, you have to win. But I think our guys gave everything they had (Thursday). They were diving on the floor to save possessions.

I think most guys, when they see a problem, they want to fix it. Sometimes less is more, and that's a hard concept for all of us to understand at times.

But I obviously wouldn't have done the album unless the other guys gave their blessing.

It's tough to win when you don't score. I don't think this was a lack of chances. According to our statistics, we had 18 scoring chances. That's a pretty decent amount. The guys we count on to score had chances. We just didn't finish.

I wasn't throwing them out there. The guys want to win. When you don't win, some guys throw things. That's fine. You call it frustration, other people say you want to see a little fire. You saw a little fire coming out of the dugout when the game was over.

Usually it's two guys holding the victim, but this was even better. I think this trick was invented when Abner Doubleday started this game, and every year there's somebody who hasn't seen it. We had to go all the way to Japan to find someone this time.
