Here’s a pretty good attempt at a transcript of the TellyMonster/Carlos Gomez interview after last night’s win. There’s a little bit of clean-up here and the intent is not to make fun of anyone, but to capture a truly tumultuous and joyful moment. You try interviewing or answering questions when 43,000 people are going batpoopy, regardless of whether English is your first or third language.

TM: How does it feel right now?

CG: You know, I feel great because you know I come to the clubhouse today and I saw a lot of good thinking in the clubhouse. And I say, tonight the team is coming here to play like every day and you see what happens.

TM: In the eighth inning when Denard hit that ball down the line was there anyone in the building that was going to stop you from running?

CG: No, no, no, no! You know, When I saw that ball go down the line I don’t look at nobody. You know, the only thing I look for was the plate.

TM: Four hits tonight. You guys are in first place. It must feel good.

CG: Last year, I got the experience. This year, it’s more fun to me because we’ve got a new team and, you know, they brought me here and I feel so excited when we play here.

TM: One last question, your friend Alexi Casilla came through with another big hit. You’ve got to feel good for one of your best friends.

CG: You know, when I’m on the bench and there’s a guy on second base I know he’s going to get him home because I have a lot of confidence in him, and he’s got a lot of confidence too.
