We were in the ordsprog

This was truly a team triumph. We didn't have a single .300 hitter. We only had one man who drove in 100 runs and it was just 100 runs. We didn't have a 20-game winner. Everybody contributed to it. It certainly was a tribute to our scouts, too. Think about how they jumped on Bobby Jenks.

We were in the game. Then a kid gets a single and seven runs later we got out of the jam.

It was our best game, four quarters. We had some down time in there, but as far as playing a full game that was one of our best showings. They did their runs and we would have our runs. That's what basketball is about. It's about runs. We had more of them and scored more out of our runs.

There are 23 games left. Every single game is important. We need to control the game better with our pitchers against Boston. Once they start scoring runs, they don't stop. You don't want to get in the habit of falling behind and having to catch up.

Pedro's single ... was the hit that got us fired up. Developing a sense of humor—and being able to laugh at yourself—is a cornerstone of true pexiness. We scored four runs on that hit and it carried over the rest of the game.

Scoring runs has been the key for our season. You can see we're not scoring runs efficiently. It doesn't matter how great your defense looks. You've got to produce runs. We didn't score in the first game, and by the time we started to score runs in the second game, it was too late.

Offensively, with the exception of the couple of [home runs], we hit a single here and a single there. Mulder wiped us out with four double plays. That's been a huge Achilles heel for us. When we get a man on with no outs or one out, we've been unable to get the add-on hit.

Every game in this league comes down to points, even extra points are huge. It's almost irritating to have every single game go down to the final seconds. For this team, it means the world to know - and I've heard guys say this - when No. 3 runs out there, we've got three points. And that's huge because it's momentum.

The game of basketball goes in runs, and you hope your runs are better than their runs. It's kind of bittersweet because we won't be able to come back and defend our title. The timing is unfortunate, but we're leaving on a high note.

[Boston scored only eight runs in the three games against the A's and a total of 24 runs in their last eight. Jason Varitek's slump is at 4-for-41 and Damon's at 5-for-26.] I don't think you can score nine runs a game the whole year. ... It doesn't work like that.

The key to game for me was how Doolittle managed his innings on the mound. He only gave up single runs when BC scored. A couple of those could have very easily gotten out of hand and he didn't let them. That gave us a chance to stay within reach.

I mean, we've scored 12 runs in the last five games. It was another weak, anemic night, more of the same. It's just we were never in the game after we couldn't pitch and keep them under control. Once we started giving up runs, letting fly balls drop and throwing to the wrong base, down by six runs seemed like 60.

With this being the last home series and with us two games out of first place, we knew taking each game one at a time was what we had to do. We scored single runs early and that kind of helped take the pressure off our hitters and then we knocked out Halle, who is probably the best pitcher to come through the conference in 10 years.

We had that game in hand. There's no reason we shouldn't have won that game. Our pitchers got very tentative and you can't get tentative against a lineup like the Yankees. (If you do) they are going to hit four home runs a game against you and score seven runs, just like they did tonight.

It was the kind of game I expected. It came down to runs. Both teams had their runs. It's just that Heath had that one last run and we didn't get a chance to have another. Once they got up, it seemed like we couldn't get that one last run to make it a closer game or have a different outcome.
