I think it's very important to everybody to try to finish over .500,
The first time was much more severe, and he wasn't able to walk. I think this one will be kind of short term,
He didn't have enough. We needed a better performance out of him to have a chance to win the game.
He looks very comfortable at the plate, ... It doesn't look like he's overmatched.
He was fine out there. There are tougher plays to come.
I'll take that double he ran into a single.
I'm just on the side looking at it, the runs are going up on the board. But I don't know what it is or why.
He seems more comfortable and relaxed in camp this year.
That's the rule around here. They've all been told. It's been said more than one time.
I don't get the same feel. I don't get the same electricity, the same energy about the situation now that I did at the beginning of the year. That is missing out of the clubhouse.
He carries himself with a little type of air about him. There is more self-confidence. I see that in him, which is good.
He could go out and pitch the same way this year and have a tremendous year because things go his way. This may be his year to get run support.
I guess more disgust because we had two games won and then we lost them.
I remember my first Opening Day very well. We lost 4-2 to the Cardinals on a two-run home run. I remember my first at-bat, a double, missed a home run by a couple of feet. I had an intentional walk and another hit and went 2-for-3, and I thought I was on my way to the Hall of Fame.
