View Photo »I know they don't like the Yankees to win, not even in Nintendo games ... I'm pretty sure every Boston fan out there can feel proud. I'm going to give just the same effort I always did for them.
That's why it was so important for the Phillies to get Cliff Lee and Pedro Martinez ... It just puts such a wear and tear on your body.
What else would I want? I'm doing the job I love ... I'm doing something that not everybody gets to do. If you consider the fact that two months back I was sitting at home not doing anything, none of you were thinking of me whatsoever, none of you were asking me questions, and today I am here, probably ...
Are pinstripes and Pedro Martinez really this fascinating or do the Tampa Bay Rays simply offer the mediocre sizzle of a Steak-umm?
I would just have to thank God, not only for the opportunity but for keeping me healthy and blessing me and Andy ... I have such a long career and it's gone full circle, to be able to compete in a World Series, on one of the biggest stages and to just see two old goats out there doing the best they can ...
If we faced Josh Beckett and Roy Halladay every game during the regular season, I don't think our offense would be the same ... We faced Cliff Lee and Pedro Martinez, two really good pitchers, the first two games. You're not going to score 10 runs a game off those two guys.
Felipe and that group of guys – which now Pete Mackanin is one of my coaches and last year with Jerry Manuel (with the Mets) – that's where I think I developed myself as a player
slumping outfielder ... is 10 for 27 in his career against Phillies starter Pedro Martinez.
To have such a long career go full cycle and be able to compete once again in the World Series on one of the biggest stages
Yankees should have Don Zimmer throw out the ceremonial first pitch for Game 2 when the Bombers take on Pedro Martinez and the Phillies
Two months back, I was sitting at home not doing anything, none of you were thinking of me whatsoever ... None of you were asking me questions, and today I am here, probably pitching one of the biggest games ever in the World Series, two great teams with a whole bunch of legendary players.
I love the Phillies story lines ... I hope it works out where it's Pedro Martinez coming back to the Bronx and if there's an athlete in baseball who I really love to see on the big stage and get more exposure it's Ryan Howard. He seems to be a great kid and a heck of a ballplayer.
I know the Boston fans don't like the Yankees to win, even in Nintendo games
I don't think you can go wrong with Pedro Martinez ... He's such a big-game pitcher. And then when you see what he did against L.A., he's pretty impressive.
I look at this situation as a blessing ... I mean, what else would I want? I'm doing the job I love. I'm doing something not everybody gets to do. If you consider the fact that I was, two months back, sitting at home not doing anything. None of you were thinking of me whatsoever. None of you were asking...
I hate the Yankees, but I'll be fair and give the Phillies two games. The Yankees have Mariano and the Phillies don't. The Yankees have A-Rod and the Phillies don't. And the Yankees always kill Pedro Martinez. The bottom line is if it's ninth inning and the Phillies are leading, Brad Lidge isn't getting...
It wouldn't surprise me at all, I know they don't like the Yankees to win, not even in Nintendo games
I think Pedro Martinez showed if you can change speeds and locate good, you can have success against them ... I think Blanton, not only is he a very aggressive pitcher, but he's that type of pitcher.
When you mention Derek Jeter, you mention Alex Rodriguez, Teixeira, I see those guys as the future of the game, the next Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron
I told J.A. yesterday that he was going to pitch Sunday, and when the game got called today, I think, if I'm not mistaken, it's been about 10 or 11 days since Pedro Martinez pitched in a game ... Also, the weather had something to do with it. Another thing that comes into play is the fact that Cliff Lee...
I look at this situation as a blessing ... I mean, what else would I want? I’m doing the job I love. I’m doing something that not everybody gets to do. Two months back, I was sitting at home not doing anything. None of you were thinking of me whatsoever, none of you were asking me questions. And today I...
We’ve got to find a way to reverse that today and go out there and fight and remember the closer we get to the finish line, the harder things are going to get. The Phillies changed around their starting rotation this week. Pedro Martinez was bumped up a day and will start Wednesday and Cliff Lee will st...
I know they don't like the Yankees to win, not even in Nintendo games
Unfortunately, I, personally, think the members of the team have a long way to go in this area. As The Star Ledger’s Brian Costa tweeted earlier , in between yesterday’s doubleheader, numerous Mets players surrounded a television. Rather than watching game tape to prepare for the game against Pedro Mart...
I know that they don't like the Yankees to win, not even in Nintendo games ... And knowing that I am part of Boston … I've been a Montrealer, a Bostonian, and now a New Yorker, and somehow I might become a Philadelphian now — I'm pretty sure that every Boston fan out there can feel proud that I'm going ...
