Manager Aaron Boone had this to say about his team!

“This is a good team,”You talk about doing it a lot of different ways. For a long stretch there, it was just starters going six, seven, eight innings and really dominating that way. We’ve had to lean on our offense at different times. We’ve been bullpen-dependent in different sections of the season. You’ve got to be able to do that if you want to be a complete team.”

Aaron Judge had this to say about New York about his team!

“No one is satisfied. We know what’s ahead of us,”It’s halfway through the year now and we’ve still got a long way to go, but every win is important. There’s been so many years we look back in the end of September, fighting and clawing. I think guys are starting to realize the importance of, hey, we won the series, but this third game means a lot down the road.”

Giancarlo Stanton had this to say about New York about his team!

We find a way to figure it out every night,”Sometimes teams lose their fight. If you jump ahead early, there’s a lull. We’re just pushing the envelope -- boom, boom, boom -- until the game is over. We win in all different types of ways, so it’s pretty cool to be a part of.”

Dusty Baker who is manager of Houston had this say after Houston’s 2-0 win over New York Mets Wednesday!

This was a road trip probably unlike any other,”There was a swing of emotions almost day to day. We blow a couple in the ninth and then we have a no-hitter and then today’s game. It was an emotional road trip and it ended up well. Boy, [when] we left home, we were hoping to go like 4-2, who knows? I always want 6-0 or the perfect road trip, but very rarely do you have it.”

Justin Verlander had this to say about Houston’s 2-0 win over New York!

It was awesome,“I said something to [Castro] after the game. We see how hard him and [fellow catcher Martín] Maldonado work and they don’t complain, even though they weren't having the offensive seasons they would like. Both those guys understand there’s ways to help the team. … To have him be the guy that stepped up today in a big spot, it’s awesome. I’m really happy for him.”

I don’t think our guys were looking to measure up against anybody,”I think we know how we’d do.”
