chance kept reason win
Jaret Wright's the reason why we had a chance to win tonight. He kept his composure.
bad best career great harder helped win wins
I think he was harder on himself. He wanted to come in here and win 25 games. He battled for us, and even when he didn't have his best stuff, he helped us win. You know you've had a great career when 17 wins is a bad year.
kick missing pitches scratch win
I'm getting my pitches and I'm not missing them. This was a big win for us. We had to kick and scratch for everything.
coming giving next win
You don't want to find yourself coming to the ballpark, giving away a win and then the next day, you get beat.
course homer johnny runs score scratch sit wait win
Over the course of the season, you're not going to score 10 runs every night. You need to win the 2-1 games, too, and we're not going to have to sit back and wait for a big homer to win a game. We can scratch and claw with Johnny and Derek up top, which is important.
moved
It's over and done with, and I've moved on,
doubt far takes
He's always been our guy. We're going to go as far as he takes us, no doubt about it.
grinding hard work
It's been a lot of hard work and a lot of grinding it out.
head hit knew last since spring strung training work year
I was all over the place then. I had been hit (by a pitch) in the head and had been doing so much work since spring training to try and make up for last year that I was just strung out. But I knew it would change.
seen
I have nothing to say. I haven't seen it.
easily great huge team turned
It was huge for us. They've got a great team over there, and we could have easily turned this thing into a disaster.
drag father pathetic tried
I think it's pretty pathetic that they tried to drag my father into it.
involving
You couldn't have done that without involving me?
anytime guy missing piece team throws
He's a big part of this team offensively. Every guy in this lineup is an All-Star, and anytime you're missing that big a piece of the puzzle, especially the way we've kind of got it going offensively, it kind of throws you off a little bit.
