begins hard home season settled takes time
I don't think the season really begins for about two weeks. We were just getting in off the road, and that's hard enough. It takes time to get settled in at home and get comfortable.
bases free guys harder limiting walks work
Keep guys off the bases by limiting walks and you really give yourself a chance. Guys are going to get hits. But if you limit those free passes, they have to work a lot harder to put up runs.
feed sort time walking
This organization really stresses not walking guys. I think that as a staff, we've sort of been able to feed off each other in that regard. You learn. I know that when I walk guys, most of the time they are going to score.
crooked guys maybe nice
The first inning was pretty important. Maybe that got us going a bit. It was nice to see the guys put up some crooked numbers.
drives point
It's to the point where ... it just drives you crazy,
hopefully
Hopefully this will kind of get us going a little bit.
puck
Puck would've wanted us to go out and play.
signed
They keep everyone loose. That was something I thought about when I signed back here.
battling hopefully looking rhythm
This one was pretty rough. I think it's probably the roughest one I've had. I just have to keep battling away and hopefully find that rhythm that I'm looking for.
close hopefully turn
When you turn 90, you've done something right. Hopefully I can even come close to that.
