act came eating happy hoping promise roger season tried
He tried to act like he was happy for us and smiled, but you could tell it was eating him up inside, ... He came here with Roger hoping for the promise of the postseason and the World Series. But after he had that surgery, his season ended.
anyone front group guy
He was the one guy that anyone could and would come to if they had a question. And also the one guy that if he said something in front of a group everyone would listen. I think he'll be around a little bit. I don't think he's going to be a ghost.
best certainly pitchers
He's certainly one of the best pitchers in the game,
feeling great mental overcome tenderness
He did a great job, ... I don't think he was feeling 100 percent, but he's got the mental wherewithal to overcome any kind of tenderness or soreness.
fastball kept mistakes moved pitchers pitches
He did what pitchers do when they're successful. He moved the fastball in and out, he kept his pitches down for the most part, and he got away with mistakes when they were up.
control ridiculous
Frankly, it's a little ridiculous that MLB would take control of that. This isn't their game.
legs tired
I am a little tired and my legs are heavy.
tough
With Roy, even on an off day is very tough on any lineup.
concentration game home innings legs players point position surprise tired
You get to a point in the game where a lot of position players that have been in the game for 15 or 16 innings get a little weary. The legs can get tired and your concentration wanes. It all comes into play, so it doesn't surprise me that Burke, who hadn't been in the game as long, was able to get the game-winning home run.
both brunt came hit nice pitching top
Both pitching staffs, for the most part, did a nice job. And Brunt came up with the big hit to top it all off.
came reason
She's part of the reason he came here to pitch.
andy best concentration himself pure roger roy separates
There's something different about each one of them. Roger is different in his preparation and experience. Andy separates himself with his concentration on the mound. And I think Roy probably has the best pure stuff.
associate pain people played simple understand
People don't understand that pain he has played with. It's not simple pain. It's the kind of pain people associate with an injury.
ball good
didn't have a real good feel for the ball tonight.
