anytime concerned game losing nice spring win winning
It's only spring training, but no question, anytime you win a game like that it's important. We're not as concerned with winning and losing in the spring, but that was a nice comeback.
kept nice year
That's the way it's been all year with us. It's what's kept us from getting on a nice roll.
discipline guy hitting nice productive swing
I wouldn't put him in the five-hole if I didn't think he was (capable). I think he's got discipline. He's got a nice swing and I think he could be a very productive guy in our lineup hitting in the 5-6-7 hole.
besides gave great nice slider
He was outstanding. What a nice job. B-Law gave us a great effort. He let one slider get away from him. Besides that, he was right on his game.
knows nice park
He knows this park as well as anybody. He had a nice series.
effects feeling nice teeth
Jake was feeling the effects of everything that was going on between his teeth and hand, but he battled out there. He did a nice job.
finishing nice pride rest talk
There's some pride here, ... We wanted to get that game. There's been a lot of talk about not finishing over .500. It'd be nice to play well the rest of the way.
change encouraged good nice scenery stuff thrown
The stuff was always there. I think the change of scenery was good for him. Chan Ho is going to have a nice year. I'm very encouraged by how he's thrown the ball.
ball behind care good hitter job nice normally press seeing selective
It's natural, I don't care how long you're in the game, to press a little. He's not being as selective as he normally is; he's not seeing the ball too well right now. He's too good a hitter -- he'll come out of it. He's doing a nice job behind the plate.
home nice swung
It is nice to have him back. He got us going there with the home run. He swung it well tonight.
case comfort depth gives insurance knows nice
There's going to be a little more sense of comfort with him now. He knows this club, he knows the city, so it's nice to have him on the bench. He gives us depth and insurance in case something happens.
adam bat expect guy hope last limit played speed throwing year
I expect to see the same guy I did last year. I hope they'll limit him to 30 or 40 games. That first at-bat off Adam Eaton last year was very impressive. The guy hadn't played all year and Eaton was throwing 93-94 and he doubled off the wall. That bat speed is always there.
saved score struggling
He saved us with that effort, ... especially the way we've been struggling to score runs.
excited makeup ready
This kid's makeup is off the charts, ... We're excited to have Jake all ready to go.
