I'm going to get to catch them the next two weeks and then when I come back I'll have another week, week-and-a-half to catch them. Yeah it's going to affect us a little bit, but we've already started talking about stuff.
decision glad help
I'm just glad he made the decision to go out there and help us out, help us win.
great turned
I had no idea what he was going to do. It's a great thing, because we need him to play. We need him in the lineup. ... It could have turned into a big distraction.
figure good
I can't figure out what it was, ... I know after the game, it didn't feel good at all.
chance eyes kid open star struggle total
He's one of those kids. You know when a kid's got talent, but a lot of times you see 'em struggle with new surroundings. In his case, it was the total opposite. He's a kid who, if he doesn't open your eyes, your eyes are shut. He has a chance to be a star in this game.
affects behind front hit people
Soriano doesn't just hit the ball. He affects people that are in front of him and behind him, too.

This team is making a lot of money right now. Just put it like that. Revenues are higher than predicted. The good thing is if these guys come up a couple of days late, they still get the experience.

This was a great opportunity for me professionally and personally. I already know several people on this coaching staff and how much they have accomplished here at Iowa State. This is also a great place to raise a family.
coming opponents tough turn
We need to turn it around. It's two tough opponents coming up, so we'll see what we're made of.
coming fans reason sticking
We've outgrown the whole 'novelty' thing. It'll be up to us to give fans a reason for coming back and sticking around.
ball guy leave miss plate
When you leave a ball out over the plate to a guy like Andruw Jones, he doesn't miss very many.
ahead couple games
We can't get ahead of ourselves. It's just a couple of games.
doubt team
We're a better team with him, no doubt about it.
catching familiar games reason somebody start talked time
We've actually talked about that a little bit. That's part of the reason I wanted to start catching him. Any time you catch somebody and you're more familiar with him, it helps, especially with as big as these games are going to be.
