base games larry run score until
I had no idea until Larry Andersen told me the other day. I don't even know when it started. I do know the first 10-12 games I only was getting one hit, but it was in big situations. I try to get on base and score a run at least once a game. If I do that, I feel like I've done my job.

I got things to do. I'm not going to watch baseball, I play it.
appreciate chance coverage early maybe news sit talk time watch
I haven't had time to think about it. When I get a chance to sit back and maybe watch some news coverage and talk about things like that, maybe I'll appreciate it. It's too early right now, personally.
