You can't expect to win when you give them extra outs. You hope when you make errors they won't come up and bite you.
You certainly can't expect to win when you give them extra outs. You're gonna make errors. Tonight we didn't make them at good times.

The day I stop expecting good things to happen when he's up in a situation like that is a day that I shouldn't be here. It's surprising when we don't score with the ability we have, but that happens.

I thought today was very significant for him. This the most pressure you could be asked to pitch under when everybody expects you to win, you get one run and pitch up to those standards.

I didn't know what to expect going in. But nothing gets by these fans. Bernie didn't know whether to take a bow (in the eighth inning). He looked over at me and I gave him a nod.
