Oct. 17 Joe Maddon postgame interview

Q. Can you give us your assessment of your team's play and how they handled the big stage and everything tonight?

JOE MADDON: Beautifully. If Harvey wasn't pitching, it would have looked a lot better. He was outstanding tonight. Give him credit, because he had about as good of command as you possibly can of all his pitches. His stuff is always good, but the command was outrageous tonight. Therein lies the game, because Jon pitched well, too.

I thought we were fine, absolutely fine. I just think that he was absolutely on top of his game tonight.
