I really didn’t know him growing up, he was a little bit ahead of me, but I knew who he was obviously ... There’s not a lot of guys from Arkansas getting drafted, much less making it to the Big Leagues. That’s going to be a neat deal for our state.

Seth Smith took some good swings off of Cliff Lee when we faced him in the regular season ... We give Smitty a shot at it today and give him four at-bats and see what happens. You move Carlos over to right field and you're still good defensively.

I didn't really know him growing up. He was a little ahead of me, but I knew who he was, obviously ...

It's surreal. It's what you dream of as a kid, being on this stage ... I'm here in the World Series, and I'm having success. And it feels great.

Of course, while the Lee-Sabathia matchup figures to intrigue most fans, it will probably be painful to watch for those in Cleveland. With both star pitchers approaching big paydays, the cost-conscious Indians dealt them away for packages of prospects. They can't be feeling too good about it
-
I mean, they can't be feeling too good about it (in Cleveland) ... It's two guys they could have had on their team that are now on different teams facing each other in the World Series.

We play the game to be in these kinds of situations ... I'd trade my Cy Young Award to be able to pitch in these kinds of games any day.

I haven't been told for sure, other than the fact that all the games are equally important ... It's an unbelievable opportunity. It's a chance for me to help a team potentially go back to back and reach the World Series.
