    We played all-around good baseball today, ... That's what happens when you do the little things. This is something to build on. We played small-ball today. The little things have to happen for us to win.

    We played all-around good ball today. That's what happens when you do all the little things. We showed ourselves we can finish up strong and build for next year.

    Those four runs were the key to the game. We have so much hitting. We don't give away at-bats. There's no reason to hang your head and give up.

    I've been a utility guy for three years, and when I'm healthy, I'm out there pretty much all the time. I'll get my fair share of at-bats and playing time. I took trading for Tony as a good thing. He'll bring a lot to the table.

    This game is so mental. If you can get into a pitcher's head, even a little bit, get him off his game this much (he holds his thumb and forefinger up to show a tiny gap), to get him to just miss, we've got guys like Griffey and (Adam) Dunn coming up.

    It's not just that we're making them throw pitches. We're not swinging at pitches we can't handle. If you do that, you're going to make the pitcher work and he's going to get tired and eventually you're going to get into their bullpen. That's what you want to do. I think that's where our success is coming from.
