I've never had back-to-back plays like that. We had scouting reports, and both times they hit it the other way.

Jimmy just seems to have a way of not putting extra pressure on himself. He's having fun, and that's a great way to approach the streak.

It will be nice to thank the fans for the time I was able to spend there.

It's sad, actually. Everybody should be excited about Opening Day, but it feels like we're under a cloud. It's a shame.

I couldn't have planned it any better. It's important to pick up the hardware [in person], because you never know how many opportunities you're going to get.

I think there's not enough made about the chemistry of a team and the ability of everybody to pull on the same end of the rope and worry about what matters, and that's wins.

It's going to take some getting used to. I think it will probably take me about a week to get adjusted to the way the ball carries here and the tendencies in the gaps. I've been trying to pay attention in batting practice and make sure I keep my eyes on the ball and make sure I get there before the ball comes down so I can make any adjustments if I need to.

That's why you play, isn't it? I won a world championship last year, and the feeling is incredible. It's hard to describe. You have to go through it and experience it.

This is the biggest one they make, too. I fouled a changeup off the pad, and then a curveball catches me on the shin.
