I guess good things come to those who wait. I love my teammates, and the city, and the organization, and it’s unbelievable to even to say ‘World Series,’ and that we’re going right now.

They have a lot of good, talented players. A lot of good arms. Once [they] start adding pieces to the puzzle, [they’re] right there.

We didn’t know this kid and he’s been pitching real well for them and they’re real high on him,

About 99.9 percent of the time he comes in, and it’s game over. He’s nasty, he’s got good stuff. He’s still got it. You tip your hat to any guy that can square up and...

They all count. Anyway you can take it, take it.

It’s just fun coming to the park now. The fans are pretty pumped up, too.

I think those guys aren’t so young anymore,

We want to get to the World Series, … It’s all about the World Series. Hopefully, it’s meant to be for us. We don’t know yet.

It’s great to go back to pay respects.

It’s a good day. Hopefully, we’ll play another month and really enjoy it.

He?s been phenomenal. He?s been a huge contributor for us and a big lift.

I guess we’re even, huh?

Obviously, he was the President of the United States, but he’s just a normal person, a down to earth guy.

I know he’s smiling right now, … He’s overjoyed. We were so happy for him when he finally won the Stanley Cup. We couldn’t wait to get through on the phone to him and congratulate...

I just hope this all gets worked out some way. That’s my boy. I hope he’s given an opportunity to go to spring training. I love this guy, and he’s made a lot of sacrifices...

Our fans are fired up, and it’s great to have an opportunity to have another round with the Cardinals. We have another chance, we have a shot at it. There’s only so many that you...

I would have really been disappointed if he wasn’t here on the roster.

That time he threw me one or two changes and I fouled one off and then the other one he got it up a little bit and I was able to get it far enough...

Some guy in the crowd was trying to be funny and he slapped her upside the head, acting like a 12-year-old, and he ran, … It was his misfortune that he messed with a Jersey...

I’m really happy, really proud, that our fans stepped up and gave an unbelievable ovation for Baggy. He’s not an overly emotional guy, but I know that touched him.

We were two, tired old men walking out there, holding each other up, letting the kids celebrate. I went to the training room and passed out.

It’s a huge home run under the circumstances the last couple of days, with what my mom went through. She wanted me to get here and not miss any games.

I hit it off the end a little bit and it was a little whippy, … There’s so much tape on (the bat) sometimes you can’t really tell if they’re broken.

Obviously we understand the situation, but we have a healthy Andy. Andy wasn’t healthy last time he pitched. He didn’t let on to anybody, but his leg was killing him.

The key to our success this year is obviously not from our offense. It’s from our pitching and defense. We made some plays when we had to. Brunt made a great play. This is the...

This is one of my favorite parks,

I guess it’s fitting. How many times did we get shut out this year?

I’m not out here to disrespect anybody, … And obviously with Wags, I’m not. I just kind of hit it and I was like, man, I got it. I looked at it and just ran.

Maybe he read the article where I said that’s never happened to me before, … I mean, I’ve had some that were questionable – but, come on. I’m sitting on the bench all day, the...

They all do the same thing, … All of them, they just know how to set up hitters. They strike you out when they need a strikeout. It’s just amazing to watch them pitch.

It’s a lot like it must be here with the Seahawks making it to the Super Bowl for the first time. People who thought they’d never see anything like it got to experience something very...

He’s an aggressive manager. He’s not afraid to make changes and make adjustments or put certain plays on. We just go out and do what we’re told, and he’s making all the right moves.

That’s an unbelievable team that we just beat, … and it’s just a great feeling right now and it just goes to show you that we just never gave up.

Obviously, today four runs was enough, … Andy pitched great and we played good defense. We had three double plays early that were big. The way the series started, that was a huge comeback to...

We understand this park very well,

It’s strange, him not being here in the clubhouse. But today I was just elated, the way the crowd showed their support for him. I was proud to be an Astro, and I’m proud to...

He really wanted it. He was really focused. That was probably the best I’ve seen him all year.

Overall everyone swung the bats and did everything right,

This one has to rank up there as maybe the best, coming from a long way back. That just tells a lot about the guys in this clubhouse.

It was execution, just doing the little things right in order to win.

I think we had four great games. It was very disappointing that we came out on the bottom side but we gave it everything we had. We gave everything we had for (the fans).

I don’t know. It’s just cute. She’s too young to understand that.

Without Rocket being around, nobody is going to fill those shoes. But Brandon is a big piece of our puzzle. He understands what he can and can’t do. He is going to be a big...

Carrying the what? What’s the mantle. Like the mantle on the fireplace? Or Mickey Mantle? … Well, obviously, we want to get it done. We’ve dedicated ourselves to the city of Houston and this organization.

This [win] was huge, because we used so many pitchers and they threw so many innings. The last thing in the world you want to happen today in a tough game like that is take...

And sometimes, … it might be a guy throwing something you might not want to know about.

Everyone can make their own decisions about what’s going on. It’s not for players to answer. It’s just a tough situation right now.

Everything had to work perfectly on that double play, and it did. It was an unbelievable ending.

They caught a break and their best hitter came up, and that’s that, … This stings. It’s hard. But the umps do a great job. Things happen so fast out there.

But it was good to help us get off to a fast start. It’s always nice when you get any pitcher a run in the first. And Brandon pitched real well tonight.
