The guy's going to the Hall of Fame, ... It meant a lot to have him out there. It's only fitting he got the last three outs. Trevor Hoffman's done a great job of keeping us together. It's a special moment.

These games are tough to judge because we're trying not to look ahead to Tuesday, but you kind of get that feeling.

Hopefully, it's a day to day thing and I will be right back out there.

He started off really hot and has confidence. That's what this game's about. He has so much confidence out there, I think every fifth day he expects to win. Maybe you couldn't say that a year ago.

He's so popular that if he hits a home run and we congratulate him, fans are mad if we hit him too hard on the helmet.

I played well. It's nice to play well. I wasn't aware of it (the cycle) until somebody in the stands told me. Then I tried to go deep. We've had different guys every night step up. Right now it's a lot of fun for us.

I know a lot of people are talking about our record. But I'm proud of what we've done. I think we've accomplished a lot. It's awesome. People counted us out every week and here we still are.

If you know how the game's played and what it's about,

If you know the game, you know that's part of it.

If you're in October, not at all. I don't care. It's a new season in October. Throw your records out the door, and it's about winning series.
