Tales from Bard on life in the playoffs

Posted Oct 11, 2009
"The experience of my first playoffs has been pretty cool, even if we aren't happy to be down two games. The atmosphere out there was unbelievable. I made my debut in Anaheim back in May. I remember thinking this was the big leagues. This is that same park, but now it's on a whole other level. The way the fans are into every time a guy gets on base and everyone is on their feet the whole time." (ESPN.com)
