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.

The game has never seen a better catcher than YADIER MOLINA.

There are always distractions, if you allow them.

I'm a great believer in the character of the club. To me, character has a lot to do with how you compete. That creates urgency and toughness. That elevates the talent that you have.

It's like most anything. If you want to be a loser, there's always a way to dwell on the negative. If you want to win, there's always a way to think positively.

The best way to win is to play well early or late in the game. The middle part tends to take care of itself.

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.
