second sitting three top
It was just sitting in the zone. Three runs, and we're going to play catch-up from the top of the second inning on.
looks three
It looks like the better part of three weeks.
ballpark games hits six three win
First and foremost, you aren't going to win many games in this or any ballpark with one run. We get six hits from three people, and that won't make it at any park.
additional creep followed four game runs side three time tough trying
Each time we creep back into the game, it's followed up by additional runs from the other side of the field. When you're trying to get back into a game three or four times a day, that's tough to do.
additional catch continues creep followed four further game runs side three time tough trying
Each and every time we creep back into the game, it's followed up by additional runs by the other side of the field. And when you're trying to play catch up, and it continues to go further and further away from you, you're trying to get back in the game three or four times a game that's tough to do.
coming days last runs score spring three won
Coming out of Spring Training, I thought we'd score some runs. We've scored 20 runs in the last three days and haven't won a game.

You should not be able to take someone's property for economic development,
duke good
Zach Duke did a good job. He had to battle, obviously.
large last mean next obviously sample six size team won year
One-and-7 obviously isn't the way you want to start. But the (Dodgers) team I managed last year started 12-2 and we won 71 games. So it's not a large enough sample size of games. It doesn't mean this is the kind of team we're going to be for the next six months.
needs spring takes time work
Zach's doing what he needs to do to get his work done. It takes time -- that's all part of spring training.
disruptive fast gets ideal piece player spot top
Duffy is an important piece at the top of our lineup. That's an ideal spot for him. When he gets on first base, he can be a very disruptive player as fast as he is.
