RED SOX 7, INDIANS 1: Undaunted, Manny speaks again »
October 19, 2007
Dustin Pedroia on Josh Beckett's outing:
''He was awesome. He’s been doing it all year long. He was outstanding, man. That’s why he’s one of the best in the game. He dealt tonight.''
Pedroia on Manny Ramirez's long single:
''Manny’s ball could have gone either way.''
Pedroia on heading back to Boston:
''We’re grinding it out, man. Our backs are still against the wall. We’re just concentrating on winning Saturday. We have to play it pitch-by-pitch.''
Kevin Youkilis on Beckett:
''It’s definitely exciting to watch. It’s fun to play behind a guy who can dominate a game. It’s a little more relaxing being on the field.''
Youkilis on his ailing wrist and hand:
''My health reasons were definitely tough. My whole entire wrist and hand were feeling 100 percent. When I hit I’m more of a handsy hitter, I try to use more hands than body a lot of times. It was tough just to get the swing back and the feel of facing live pitching again. When you’re out for over a week, it’s tough to go out there and face live pitching, and timing and feeling comfortable at the plate. Luckily, I felt comfortable in the box and I’m just trying to stick to the little things.''
