Yankees fans do expect to see Jeter, A-Rod, myself and Bernie Williams. But with this Classic going on, we had to lose some players for some time. I understand the sign, but hopefully we'll put on a showing for the U.S. team.
He's still pretty intimidating when you step in the box against him. I'm hoping this was my last time.
I hope the fans understand what went wrong in terms of signing with the Red Sox. Nothing will take away from my memories and the love affair I had with the city. But I really don't care, I just want to help the Yankees win.
We know how hot they are. They're playing well. Hopefully those guys will cool off.
Wake has been absolutely awesome lately. Hopefully he can keep up that magic. He's making guys look foolish out there.
We're three games up. We know this isn't going to be over any time soon. All we can do is go out and play to win, and hopefully the Yankees lose some games before they come see us.
I've been excited the whole time. It's something we have to take great pride in, and hopefully the guys will show up and be ready to play. I know I am.
It sure feels good. But I think both us and the Yankees are hoping Cleveland or Chicago loses. We know those teams deserve to be in it. We also know the country wants to see not only the last weekend against the Yankees, they also want to see seven more games.
I fell in love with Boston, so hopefully, I'll be here for a long time.
They came back and kept scoring. It definitely takes some wind out of your sails. There was a lot of running for us out there -- there has been for a while. We definitely need to get better. We know how good we are. Hopefully we can come out tomorrow and change it up.
It's a short tournament, though, and anything can happen. Hopefully we get hot at the right time.
Let's hope so. We've still got to play well.
(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.
I wish I could bear-hug him and twist his arm but he's a pretty big guy. We definitely want him. Hopefully when he makes his decision, the Yankees will come up first.
Tonight was a special night. Everything just clicked really well. Hopefully we can do that every single night, although we know that's going to be pretty tough to do.
I wish I had more hits and runs and more wins for this team. It comes in time. I understand it's a game and some are going to be better than others. Hopefully for this team there's a lot of better days to come.
Schill is incredible. He knows how to hit his spots. He looked like he had more hop in his step. He can smell the fact he's going to be starting for us soon.
It's a little too early to talk about that. We have to play each of these games like it's our last, and hope it's not.
