POSTGAME: Quick reaction -- Terry Francona »
October 20, 2007
On Fausto Carmona
''Some of the same of what we saw before, I think. They hit a couple of balls on the ground early in the right spot; nothing much you could do about it. He almost got out of the first inning but J.D. got him, and it went downhill fom there.''
On losing the last two games by a combined score of 19-3
''It's still just two games, You see a lot in a seven-game series. It's going to come down to Game Seven between the two teams that won more games than any teams in baseball this season, and that's the way it should be.''
On the umpiring
''Obviously we had some issues early on, but the umpires have a tough job. Against teams that are very patient, when you're putting the baseball on the plate, you feel like you need to get those calls.''
On whether or not his team can put the last two games behind it
''Well, you said it. It has to stop and it has to stop tonight. They have to go to bed tonight with clear heads and good thoughts, and come back tomorrow ready to win. It's another step for us but it's not completely unchartered.''
