Andy Pettitte Winning Quotations

Last year (2004) we took a big step by winning in the playoffs for the first time. This year was another huge step. We've got a taste of it now. Now it's the same old story, try to keep your club together and look forward to next year.

Whatever I do, I love to win. I don't care if it's tennis or ping pong, I'll kill myself to win it.

It only took me 21 runs and five years to get a win here.

Your pitching coach is almost like your spouse. He's someone to go to when you want to gripe and complain. The big thing for me with Mel (Stottlemyre) is that we've been through so much together. He's been through everything I've been through on the mound. He was a Yankee who won twenty games in New York and a Yankee who didn't win twenty games in New York. For me, he's been there and that's what makes a good pitching coach. He's a good man, too.

You've got to have camaraderie or togetherness on a baseball team if you want to win.
