“We've played bigger teams, we played Cape Henry, and we played Atlantic Shores. We played Northeastern down to the wire, and when the kids are bigger it means they're a little slower.”
Bud Hendrix
“He is an amazing player. Everybody would like to have Thierry Henry in their team - all the teams in the world.”
Ferran Soriano
“Thierry Henry is playing just phenomenally at the moment. And with a team like that we're really going to have to play to counter a score like this in London.”
David Beckham
“Danville still looks good to me. They have a very quick, athletic team. They are similar to Henry Clay talent-wise. Maybe they don't have the size of Henry Clay, but they are doing good things with their offense. They are using a lot of misdirection to slow down your pursuit. They are getting the ball to their athletes in the open field and they have a lot of guys who make plays. They look like the same old Danville to me.”
Chris Pardue
“I really think that this team, if we can acquire a couple of pieces next year and shore up the pitching, is going to do a lot of damage in this league. You can see it. You can see the core group and you can see these guys coming together and the chemistry in the locker room.”
Lloyd McClendon
“The idea is to bring back the teams core group and build around them. We are looking to shore up the team.”

“[Four Ducks players were named to the 2005 Atlantic League Post Season All Star Team. Outfielder Henry Rodriguez was selected after winning the regular season batting title and setting a new Ducks single season record for home runs. Second Baseman Carlos Hernandez was chosen after finishing second in the batting title race behind his teammate. Also recognized were pitchers Lance Davis and Todd Erdos. This season, Davis won the most games in a single season by a Ducks pitcher and also became the all-time wins leader in franchise history, while Erdos, in the role of closer, led the Atlantic League with 32 saves on the season.] We are very proud of these four guys, ... They put together exceptional seasons and led us to the post season for the second straight year.”
