closer feeling full games good plate start
It is frustrating, because I've been feeling good at the plate and it's getting closer to the start of the season. We only have 12 games left. It's frustrating, but you can't do anything about it but just try to get back to full strength.
coming easy happen happened
It ain't easy coming off the bench. That's not going to happen every day (coming off the bench) what happened out there today.
advantage cheer coming easy happen happened opportunity
It ain't easy coming off the bench. That is not going to happen every day, what happened out there today. When you're on the bench, you just cheer for your teammates. When you do get an opportunity to go out there, you've got to take advantage of it.

It was huge. By the way we celebrated on the field, it was about like we won the World Series.
bullet few hit inches past short
He hit a bullet and I was able to make the play on a short hop. A few inches over and it would have been past me.

It's nothing that I see taking a long time. I don't foresee it going into next week.
baseman behind good green huge lead light playing since
Lew had the green light and I had a pretty good lead since the first baseman wasn't playing behind me. That jump-started things. That was huge for us.
couple days ensure last rally winning
The one thing we had to play for now is a winning record. To be able to rally like we have the last couple of days and ensure us a winning record, it's pretty good.
