The reward is just being able to play again, ... I want to be back to play with these guys.

God, Ted, I knew I liked you!

We're going to be smart.

The three of us just want to be back and be a part of it and hopefully help in any way possible, ... I think that's our mentality.

I don't know if there's more pressure this time of the season. We put pressure on ourselves to perform.

As we went along, it was my call along with the trainer. I felt great, so I said let's keep going.

Pettitte did a great job, the kind I've come to expect of him while facing him so many times in the American League. But so did Derek.

If you were in a skid, Pedro would come in and stop the bleeding at times. He can give you a boost when he goes out there because you know he wants the ball every time. Every fifth day he's asking for that ball, and he's such a competitor, and you play so well behind him because he just breeds that when he steps on the mound.

It was nice to be out there. I ran well. Things like that are going to keep coming. This is what I've been working hard for.
