Dontrelle Willis Team Quotations

I don't even really care, to be totally honest. I'm really concerned about the lineup. I know I'm not betting on getting any hits off him, I'm just trying to keep the game as close as I can to give my team a chance.

I am still excited to be here, but I am not playing the best baseball that I know I can play. I hope we can advance so I can get another shot of helping the team win. My work has been good but the results just aren't there.

I can't fathom having this many wins. But today was definitely a team effort.

He's a great fit for our team because we're very young and enthusiastic ourselves. He's almost like a player, running around touching bases and everything.

Keep winning and get to the postseason, ... I won 20 games and they just dumped one beer on my head. It feels good because I'm helping my team win.

It definitely hurts, because I felt like I let my team down. I have to find a way to get outs late in the game, especially when they're making a charge.

Keep winning and get to the postseason, I won 20 games and they just dumped one beer on my head. It feels good because I'm helping my team win.

We should win it, most definitely. Every team should feel they have a chance to win, or they shouldn't come out. I don't want to be around guys who don't want to win. We're all in it because we want to win.

We seem to have done anything and everything to let a team back in the game, including myself.

Everything he meant to his team and the city,

The resilience of the team showed tonight. We could have packed it in early, especially the way they were hitting the ball. We didn't. We kept the game close.

It's baseball. That's the beauty of it, playing the games. It's a double-edged sword. Anything can happen. This team has the capability. We just haven't hit yet.

It's a great feeling. It's definitely a team effort. You have to have lot of things go your way. Today I was hit and that ended up being the winning run. I've been very fortunate to stay healthy and stay strong.

It's big for our team because it gives them an extra day. We're definitely going to need them. I know about having days off. They can be helpful sometimes, especially late in the year. It's just key to go out there and establish early, especially in this park where they can put up some crooked numbers early.

I remember going to the games and being a little boy and watching him and watching the classics, ... And everything he meant not only to the team but to the city. I never thought I'd be in a situation like this.

He's very enthusiastic. The last few days he's been running around, trying to help the catchers. Things like that. I think that's a great fit for our team because we're very young and enthusiastic ourselves. He's almost like a player, running around touching base and everything.

I feel I let my team down today, ... My heart is bleeding for everybody else. I felt like I should have gotten it done today. That's how it is. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't.
