Manny Acta Game Quotations

Nobody said it was going to be easy. But you can lose one game in the second round and still advance.

This will be a game watched by every Dominican soul, the 8 million we have on the island and all the others spread around the world.

Daniel deserves all the credit. We had several scoring opportunities to break the game open. We didn't do it but our pitching staff came through.

I had a blast. It was very intense and every game was a must-win game. I would do it again if asked and almost every player I have talked to from different nations would come back again. It was terrific chemistry and I'm thankful I got the opportunity.

The good thing is that in every game we had a different hero, so different people contributed to those different wins. I hope that Alfonso Soriano and Miguel Tejada wake up for the next round and they contribute more.

The crowd did help us. We have a big Dominican community here. But I think the game was so good, the players weren't even paying attention to the fans. They were focused on the game.
