We never quit trying. I know that's kind of corny, but the fact is we never quit trying. The dugout was alive even when we were behind. And sometimes it works.

I'm very distressed that the report was leaked early so that the initial headline said 'dismissed, fired.' That's 180 degrees from the arrangement we have potentially.

Just because you're down to your last strike, you're not out yet. You can always do more. You'll always have more at-bats to take. That's true in baseball, in rescuing animals, and in life generally.

I'm ready to do something different.

The thing I learned when I was playing was that your best way of winning was to make it difficult for the other team to score in the last three innings.

In the end, as a manager or coach, you have to keep your heart pure and do your best as a manager or a coach.
