We were going to make them earn it. You're not going to hold guys like that down forever. Look at the numbers they've put up.
anybody bit driving group guys instead job runs score smaller trying work
We've been getting guys on base. We just haven't been driving anybody in. I think, from here on out, you'll see a little bit of a different team, offensively.

We get another great opportunity to win that ballgame with my at-bat, and it's just unforgivable to not put a ball in play. You don't even need to get a hit. A lazy fly to the outfield wins that ballgame.
bats great guy hat heck mike run swing tip
We didn't swing the bats well today, but I think that had more to do with Mike than anything else. He pitched a heck of a game. Sometimes you run into a guy like that, that has a great day and you tip your hat to him.
ball closer command miss needs pinpoint plate regardless swing throw
