"I don't take a whole lot of stock in my stats, but to be able to be part of a staff (2004 St. Louis Cardinals) that was point-zero-zero-whatever away from being the top ERA staff in the league, that's something that I take pride in. I realize that they do it. They make the pitches. But for me to be able to do what I do, I have to believe that I make a difference, whether I do or not." - Mike Matheny on MLB.com (Matthew Leach, 11/03/2004)
