Maddon knows about the excitement of playing Game 7 of the World Series.
"The butterflies are a little bit bigger," Maddon said. "I can only liken it to football, where in football, you can be throw-up sick and after the first hit, you're fine. I'm not saying I'm throw-up sick, but I know when you get out in the dugout and the game's beginning and you start getting your focus, I'm sure our players feel the same way. Eager about it, absolutely; thankful, grateful to be in this moment. Couldn't do it with a better bunch of guys, players and coaches, and the entire organization and our fans.
