Todd Steverson Quotations

We hit the ball hard, but we hit it right at people.

Those are good statistics either way. I'm glad we do have a good away record because that means we have a chance on the road, but we'd rather have home-field for the first round.

The road can be a bit more difficult on a team based upon all the situations with hotels and buses. You're never in your comfort zone.

We never got on track with our starting pitching or offensively. We never did get up on the board to ride the wave. We just kept paddling.

It's good to come out on top of these types of games right now.

It's kind of bittersweet. We lost our MVP, but for his personal career you have to be happy for him. Bottom line is, even in the midst of the playoffs it's about development.

I didn't think we were swinging the bats terrible. If we hadn't been doing things fundamentally correct, I'd be an angry man. If we were 4-0 or 3-1, and not doing things fundamentally correct, I'd still be angry.

I think it's better for personal mind-set. It's nothing new. Everyone has been here before.

Obviously, there is some apprehension there because they've never umpired at the professional level. There are some rule differences, but they have to call balls and strikes and call guys out that are out. We just have to go with what we got.

It's not an easy commute. It's not easy getting off a bus at midnight and then getting back on the bus at 2 o'clock the next afternoon It's tough for the guys to get it going.
