early games pleased win
We are very pleased to win another trophy. It was one of those games where we did enough early to win and then coasted.
There was really no thought to it, which is probably why it happened.
attitude commitment excited feeling good pleased seeing team
Very excited about seeing the team play. I have a good feeling about what we can do this year. I'm very pleased with the attitude and commitment of the players.
brighter nice played playoffs
We played much brighter and sharper. It's nice to go into the playoffs on a roll.
below bit par played tonight win
We played below par tonight. I thought we were a little bit off tonight but we were still were able to win the game.
baseball head played playing
I just put my head down and played hard. Every pitch, every at-bat, I concentrated on playing baseball.
chance chickens count help hopefully knew until
I knew there was a chance, but I don't count my chickens until they hatch. Hopefully I get a chance to help the team.
focus knowing next pitch trying
I'm just trying to focus on every at-bat, every pitch, and not give anything away, but knowing that if I do, on the next pitch I've got to focus even that much more.
bit decent dove feeling looking pass start strike took
I had a feeling he was going to start with a slider, try to get a strike away. It dove away, and I took a decent pass at it. And then, yeah, from there, I could have tightened it down a little bit more. He was looking for me to chase, which I did.
alone couple night plays rare
It's rare to get opportunities to make plays like that, let alone a couple in the same night.
Everybody's got a different path. Like I say, there's not a better place to be right now, so I'm happy.
bounce days happened hopefully learn tonight
It was just one of those days when things didn't go right for us. Hopefully we can learn from some of the things that happened tonight and bounce back from them.
complex evolved found invariably simple simplicity system works
A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that works.
belonged best good happier leagues life sent shape swing uniform whatever year
Every year is different. In the past, I thought I belonged in the big leagues even when I got sent down. This year I know it's where I belong, and I'm still going down to Memphis. It doesn't make me any happier to go, but I'm in the best shape of my life and I feel like I've got my swing in pretty good shape right now. I'm confident, whatever uniform I put on every day. That's not going to change.
