beat blow dealt guys stop teams trying
Other teams aren't going to stop trying to beat us because these guys aren't playing. We got to try to soften some of the blow we have been dealt right now.
bounce hang team
That's the team I remember. You bounce back like that and don't hang your head.
hearing help kinds stuff team
No, I don't think so. Like I said before, I'm going to go out and play and play hard. Right now it's a little tough. I'm not getting very many hits. I'm hearing all kinds of stuff in the outfield. But, hey, I'm here to help this team win.
entitled good point teams
That's fine. Everybody's entitled to do what they want to do. But I'm not going to point fingers. That's not what good teams do.
lying pitcher players team throwing whether
All players would be lying if they said they didn't know a pitcher was throwing a no-hitter -- whether it would be their team or the other team. You look up on that board, you know you don't have any hits. I had never been part of a no-hitter. I didn't want that to happen, either.
clean concern house loss means problems team
I've got my own problems going. I can't even concern myself with the loss of D-Lee and what it means to the team and what it means to me. I've got to clean my own house first.
cardinals count early games goal good sweep team win
These games were intense. To sweep a good team like the Cardinals is big. These games count early in the season. Our goal is to win series, but to sweep a good team is a bonus. We can't let up.
beat mud teams throw
If we can beat some teams going to the playoffs, we could probably throw some mud in the water.
kidding
I thought he was kidding when he told me he was going to do it. It was surprising.
battles exciting fighting solved
While it's exciting to be a present-day Thurgood Marshall, it is also disappointing that we are still fighting the same battles that should've been solved years ago.
ball couple dirt miss
Yeah, the whole at-bat I wanted him to get the ball up. He got a couple down in the dirt and I went after them. Then he got one up and I didn't miss it.
concerned
You know what, I don't even concentrate on it. We won. That's all I'm concerned about.
baseball learn whatever
You learn that that's just kind of the way it is. That's part of baseball. It's a part of any sport, actually. You just have to go out and play and whatever happens, happens.
enjoyed size
We were all concerned. We would tell him. But he enjoyed life. He enjoyed the size he was. That's who he was.
