I said before the game that I didn't believe (the Angels) were going to be tired. As soon as you put on the uniform, you forget about the pains and how tired you are.

I have faith in him, and I make him believe we trust him and believe in him. He was so insecure. The thing about Jose was he didn't want to let people down. We had a lot of patience with him - he'd take a lot of heat, I'd take a lot of heat - and thank God we stayed with him.

Carl is a veteran. We know what to expect from him. When you play this game long enough and believe in your players, you can't give up that easily.

I'm a guy that doesn't like to change lineups. I believe in the players, I believe those guys got me here, and I'd like to stick with the same people.
