The goal is always a complete game. ”

My goal is to win just for the teammates and the guys in our room. ”

People make a big deal about celebrations and what's appropriate and what's not. But just talking with some veteran guys, I think anytime you get a chance to celebrate with your team, regardless if it's winning the division or winning a series, whatever it is, you take advantage of that. ”

As competitors, winning is what drives you. ”

Winning the World Series is really all that we play this game for. ”

If we have a good day and we win, I'll celebrate and enjoy it. If I have a bad day and I lose, I'll be disappointed and then come back the next day and think about the next team. ”

I've kind of found out that when I do get into trouble, that when I do have people on base, sometimes the best thing is to throw a little bit more off-speed, back off a little bit. ”

The way I look at it, 29 teams fail every year and one team succeeds. ”
