We had to win the first game. This was the ice breaker.
aside benefit goals good looking nice personal picture putting team win
Very exciting. But I think this team has been very good on putting personal goals aside for the benefit of the team, and I think this should be no different. I think my goal right now is just to play as good as I can so we can win the series. This is a nice note, but still, we're looking at the big picture here.
came casual credit fans front game halfway interested left matter office people seventh team winning

deep happens ice packing seem test therapy trainer worry
It doesn't show that I have anything torn, by the test that the trainer did to my shoulder. He doesn't seem to think I have anything to worry about. It's just a deep bruise, I guess. We'll see what happens tomorrow. We're going to keep packing it in ice and getting therapy and try to get it going.

With this club, it doesn't matter where you hit. You're going to have people on base, one through nine.
frame ready
I already have the frame for it all ready at home.
doubt good mind retire until
I didn't want to retire until I had no doubt in my mind it was what I wanted to do. I feel good enough to still play.
