Tim Wakefield Great Quotations

Going through college a Red Sox fan and knowing the history behind everything that was going on back in the '80s and finally getting a chance to win a World Series for this great city and bringing it back after 86 years, it was truly special, and it's one of the highlights that I'll remember for a long time.

Kevin will be missed. He was the guy that always kept things light and humorous and funny. Baltimore is getting a pretty good hitter and a great teammate, a guy that makes things fun.

I felt good. I got some work in and got my pitch count up a little higher than I did last time. I think Josh Bard did a great job back there.

He?s a great friend and a great teammate to have in the clubhouse.

Probably the best knuckleball I threw all day. It got away from Josh. It's the nature of the beast sometimes. But I thought Josh did a great job back there.

All three of them have done a great job of catching me. I don't have a preference of who I throw to.

It's not like we're that far behind. We have to play good in Baltimore, and go back home and play great at home.
