"I've been with Lou for 10 years, so there is a lot of Lou in me." -John McLaren

"Mr. Boone made me look smart tonight." -John McLaren, filling in quite nicely in Lou Piniella's absence

"It feels like '95. Man, it's amazing. These guys don't quit." -John McLaren, Seattle bench

"I saw a sign up there that said, 'Lucky 13'. I didn't see that until the eighth inning, right before Cameron hit that ball." -John McLaren

"It's just a special feeling. We get down a couple of runs and it doesn't bother us." -John McLaren

"There's no question that I've patterned myself after Lou. The most important lesson he's taught me is that you can't force things to happen. There were the years we had all the home run hitters. He'd say how much he wanted to run, but it wasn't the right team for it. So he didn't run. This team he has here is the kind of team he likes to manage." -John McLaren, Seattle's bench coach
