It's good to know my instincts haven't gone anywhere, ... With each swing I felt more and more comfortable in there. I'd have to admit that I was satisfied with the results.
It's fine. The knee is good. ... I've just got to get my strength back. My legs are fine. I just took a couple weeks off from training.
It was nice. It felt good to hit the ball good today.
It's working real good. I hope it stays like that all year.
It's tough. I'm trying to put a lot of stuff together in a short period of time.
I want to get my legs strong again, ... Hopefully I'll train hard all winter. I can hit it, but I don't feel like I feel when I'm strong. I can tell out there. I'm older now. It's harder.
I want my kids to have lesser of a headache than I have. Somebody has to take on the bullets, and if it's me that's fine with me.
I want to be out there with the team, but half the team is playing with other teams. I want us to play together.
I want to be able to play with my kids, man. There's a lot more to life than baseball.
So far, so good. I hate to say anything just in case somewhere down the road something happens, but at this stage and the way I feel, I'll play, definitely.
That's a great compliment if that's the case, ... These guys are good. Everybody's playing well. You just can't take two days and two games right now and start riding the white pony. You've got continue on. If we're going to make a run at this, we've got to continue winning. There's no looking back.
The last at-bat, I was pretty burned out, ... I have a short period of time to help as much as I can. Hopefully, it doesn't hurt the team. They've been there all year. I'm having to make fast, fast, fast adjustments.
They're doing so well, I don't want to mess it up. I might just stay here (rehabilitating his knee in L.A.) for a while.
