plate than what they normally do. but every time i see them pitch, they're going to be more educated. we have to stay under the curve. and they came out very prepared. they got the big hits. >> the guys led the series 2-1. you had two more game at home at that point. obviously things didn't work out the way you wanted. from your perspective, what happened? >> well, i think it comes down to what we just talk about. they got big hits when they needed to. i think we both had good pitching all the way through the series. when it comes down to it, you have to have all those components and one of them is timely hitting. we weren't able to get those. we put balls in play hard. we couldn't get that one to kind of make them bend a little bit. that's baseball. our guys played real hard. i couldn't be more proud the way they carry themselves and the way they carry this logo on our chest. a lot to be proud of. overcame a lot.

>> you won 97 games. you beat the pirates and the dodgers. how will you remember this team? >> i'll remember this team as a team with a lot guys taking advantage of opportunities. we had so many opportunities pop-up for young players. they came if and i'll never forget how these veterans led them and gave them an opportunity to excel and to grow. but it comes down to the guys that can compete with a lot of talent. we got those kind of guys. also we need to give a big congratulations to boston red sox, john farrell and the city of boston. it is a special one for them. they overcame a lot as well. >> mike, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> back to you. >> again, thank you. mike matheny in defeat as he would have been in victory, one of the classiest guys in baseball. hats off to the st. louis cardinals. >> no doubt. they had a terrific season. but tonight, the red sox. they're the champions. they played a phenomenal series. you know what?

worst to first, you don't do it without talent. they got a very talented ball club. >> this is really worst to first. you go from the bottom to the top to world champions. it doesn't get any better than that. you said it takes that talent and character. this team has a lot of both. >> i'm happy for a buvenlg of my ex-teammates, jake peavy, david ortiz, guys i played with, a couple of those guys. i'm happy the got to see them get their ring. congratulations to boston red sox and a tremendous year, tremendous story. we'll see what happens next year though. a lot of the guys you mentioned are celebrating in the clubhouse. they're celebrating in the stands. they're celebrating on the field. they're celebrating outside fenway as well. there is more to come after a quick break. a tribute to our hall of fame colleague without whom the world series on fox just wouldn't have been the same for the last 24 years.
