My relationship with George Steinbrenner was great. He was the boss, and I accepted that.

It's nice to be in first place. But just because you're not on a winner doesn't mean you're a loser.

If a club is winning, you never pay attention to a guy who's 0-for-10. If a club is losing, all of a sudden you'll find that he's the main reason why you're losing, which is absurd for me.

It just feels good to beat the world champs to be the world champs.

My father wasn't the best role model to me.

Pitchers make adjustments, and it's up to the hitters to readjust and sort of tweak what they do.

Jerry Coleman was the kind of player who made me proud to wear the pinstripes.
