exactly focusing games happen job last point reason three
I think these last three games showed that anything can happen at any point in the game. That's exactly the reason why you keep focusing on the job and get the job done.
bit exactly game maybe spark
I think this is exactly what we need. I think we need a bit of a challenge, something to maybe spark us and something to get us going. This game is all about momentum, and right now we don't have it.
game lose loss spoils
When you lose a game it just spoils everything. The loss overshadows anything personal.
game good great pitching solid timely
Finally, I think this is our first solid game - great pitching and, more importantly, timely hitting. It was just a good game overall.
almost clubhouse fun game intensity league playing
With these young guys, we have the intensity we need. It's almost like we're 10 years old playing in Little League again, but winning's more important now. It's just a lot of fun in the clubhouse now before the game and after the game.
bullpen confidence deep games great hitters starters
It's just great to see our starters going deep in games and our bullpen getting some confidence. Now, all we need to do is keep grinding, get some hitters back, and I think we'll be fine.
compare game good mode side
It's just good to get out there and get into game mode a little bit. When you do so much working out on the side like I have been, you can only get so much of that. It just doesn't compare to game situations.
games play nervous
What's there to be nervous about? You just go out and play the game.
ball changed difference found game hit nice tonight
It was nice to hit the ball well. It's nice to have a four-hit game but I haven't changed anything. The only difference was that tonight the ball found some holes.
early peak peaked problem year
I thought that all year we didn't want to peak too early. I think that's been our problem in the past, that we've peaked too early and then relaxed.
pitch throws
Pedro throws a lot like Livan (Hernandez). He'll throw off-speed on any pitch in the count. He pitched great. We couldn't do anything.
pick time
I think if I could pick any time for us to get hot, it's right now.
color looks wearing wrong
Just looks like he's wearing the wrong color blue.
clean few heels notch past playing playoff seems sitting step weeks wind
We need to step it up another notch before Wednesday. It seems like we've been sitting around on our heels the past few weeks playing not to get hurt. When you do that, you wind up playing not to win, and we have to clean that up before our first playoff game.
