That's one thing in this game, you have to be strong mentally. If you're not strong mentally, you're done.

He hates mental mistakes. Errors, you're going to make those mistakes every day. But the fact that you make a mental one was really bad to him. In 10 years, I've never seen him that mad.

He's got to suck it up. He's the best player in baseball and he's used to doing good. It's a shame, though. You can see how much this guy wants to win. Every time he gets to the ballpark it's all about baseball. These guys don't talk about anything else.

He felt like he let us down. It was not just Alex. It was everybody. It's a team effort. We were supposed to accomplish something and we didn't do it.

It's a shame, ... because all he cares about is winning. He comes to the ballpark and all he talks about is baseball. He's got a long way to go here. [Rodriguez is signed through the 2010 season.] He has a chance to win four or five championships.

To end the way it [did], he blames himself. This is a team effort. Everybody's got a lot of expectations and he's supposed to better than everybody else. It's not going to work like that. You just have to come to the ballpark and do your job and do the best you can.

I think he took it personal. We talked a little bit that day. I said listen, 'It's over, come back next year. You've got a long way to go. You've got seven more years here. So, hopefully you end up winning four or five world championships.' We've got a great team. Hopefully, they keep it together.

He blamed himself. I think he took it personal. ... He said, 'I'm sorry, guys.' ... He felt like he let us down.

He went into the coaches' room to say he was sorry. He felt like he let us down. He said 'I'm sorry guys.' But it's not his fault. I said, 'Get out of here. Go home and forget about it.' It's one thing about this game you've got to be strong mentally. If you're not strong mentally, you're done.
