“It’s a delicate balance, because we had bases loaded twice, I believe, and didn’t have anything to show for it. If you look at those at-bats, two of our best guys didn’t necessarily look themselves. And I think it was probably because there’s a little extra tension or a little extra try-hard. But it’s kind of hard to not have that. And also Cortez is really good. And I think, in particular, I don’t know what he said, but in particular, I think he had a good day for himself as well. So there were a couple times where it’s, like, hey, we need to relax or change the mojo a little bit. But it was kind of the flow of the game. There’s usually a flow to a game, even in the postseason, where it’s chaos. And it was challenging for us. And I think the biggest thing is just to relax and play ball. That served us well, and I think that the tension stuff that maybe appeared a time or two since we’ve been here, it clearly doesn’t work.”
