"I don't do it for me, I do it for these guys in here," Honeywell said. "I love these guys. I love Doc. I love everybody over here. I told [Roberts] in the dugout, 'This is my game until it's not.' And I tried to keep us in the game."
"We had a shot to win. I felt like we made the turn a little bit, battled our [tails] off here. We knew they were going to fight tonight, it's playoff baseball. The series is 3-2. Gotta save the dogs."
"It's not always fun when you're going through it, certainly from my chair," Roberts said of the challenge of knowing if and when to deploy his higher-leverage relievers after falling behind by seven runs after three innings.
"With our leverage guys, mainly Blake and Evan, it just wasn't responsible [to turn to them] at that point of the game. So Honeywell did a fantastic job, saving everyone for Game 6."
