games good last series seven
It was a good series last year, seven games that were all a grind. I don't see this series being any different.
time
Any time you get to contribute, it's a blast,
complete face great hard imagine means point quality saturday somebody stay time unless utter
Any time you stay away from somebody of that quality it's great because you don't have to face him, which is hard to do. It means that the game's out of hand. ... I imagine we'll probably see him at some point on Saturday unless it's a complete and utter blowout.
fighting gave good guys kids loss
The kids gave a good effort. The guys were fighting out there in every match. We avenged a loss to them so we'll take that.
both defend fun great hard practice versatile work
They're both real versatile for us in that that they're 6-2, 6-1 and they can defend on the perimeter and inside. They're great kids. They come to practice and work hard all the time. They're fun to coach.
awhile coast pacific took wake
They're on Pacific Coast time. It took them awhile to wake up.
hung mad matter pitch swung
I was mad at the pitch before being called a strike, I was mad I swung at that, and then he hung me one, ... So, madness, madness, happiness, all in the matter of a minute. Stupid.
brother lock nervous relaxed room self
If you can't feel relaxed around Reggie Sanders, you're a nervous and self-conscious person. They could lock you into a room of strangers, and you would feel like you were his brother right away.
almost pay train
I said 'hit the train (atop the left-field wall) for $1 million,' ... I almost had to pay off.
bit dugout entire noise
We were making more noise in the dugout than there was in the entire ballpark. It was a bit weird.
came five hard improve kid last mike picture seventh wish
I wish I had a picture of Mike when he was in seventh grade. You wouldn't think a kid could improve as much as he has in the last five years. This all came down to one thing -- hard work.
clear last likely
I think I've made that clear that more than likely this will be my last year,
good guys luck win
Reggie? Good luck. Congratulations. ... You guys win the championship down there?
ball caught crush hard likes motion puts react throw
(Willis) is hard to face; it's no fun. I told them not to get caught up in all of his motion (in the windup), just react to the ball after that. He likes to throw the fastball. Eventually, you're going to get a fastball. Hopefully, he puts one in a place where you can crush it.
