You get to the ninth inning and your stomach is clear up to here. But it`s not because of your job. It is because you want to win so badly.
Terry Francona
You don`t always want to wait until the ninth inning to win games, but we haven`t had that. That propels us, to know we can win at any time. You don`t want to go into the postseason scuffling.
Dave Roberts
When you have an at-bat like that, it wears the pitcher. It sets the tone. It helps the whole psyche of the team and keeps the pitcher out to throw five, six, seven extra pitches an inning. That adds up. (If you) add seven pitches an inning for four innin...

When they tie the game like that, you definitely want to come out the next inning and score a run, get the momentum back. I didn`t try to hit a home run. It just worked out.

We`re going to be quick to make a change if somebody gets in trouble. Everyone has pitched in different situations and should be ready. But I`m not going to try to plan anything out. We`ve got to take it inning by inning (today) and then worry about Tuesd...

We should have scored a run in the first inning. We had a runner on third with one out and couldn`t get him home. Then we gave them a run on a wild pitch. We should have won the game 6-4.
Craig Jones
We just tried to wait him out until he made some mistakes. In the seventh inning, he made a few and we took advantage of them. The guy`s 43 years old. It`s hard to believe he`s still painting the corners with 94 mph fastballs.

Anne Larson
We hit the ball pretty well, but in the last inning we started taking pitches again with men in scoring position. It had been a week since we played, and we showed it.
Apu Mody
We didn?t get our big crooked number inning today. But that?s Can, that?s the hardest he?s thrown all year. It wasn?t 81 (miles per hour) or 82. It was 85, 86, which is not gas, but when you can throw the changeup and curveball at will, you?re gonna win.
Mike Church
This was one of those things where Theo thought to himself that if we found ourselves in a 12-inning game at some point this weekend and a situation arises where we could use him and we didn`t have him . . . he`d be kicking himself.
Terry Francona
They kind of gave it to us. Obviously, they cut their own throats. You won`t see that too often, big leaguers dropping a ball, let alone two in one inning.
Annie Proulx
The kids played extremely hard and kept battling. We got one this inning, one this inning and then we were very fortunate to get six in the last inning. I am totally elated with the kids right now.

Auden Schendler
The first inning was kind of weird because I hadn`t faced a batter since September, not even in batting practice. My slider wasn`t very good.
Francisco Liriano
The confidence rolled up from the offense there in the first inning. Going out there and giving me some quick early runs took the pressure off me a little bit and I was able to go out and attack the zone.
Angus Campbell
Our bullpen is definitely deeper (than last year). Guys like Chad Qualls and Dan Wheeler were kind of feeling out what roles they would have, but they established early in the season that they would be legitimate late-inning guys.
