atmosphere bushes closed crazy crowd environment felt kissing maid minute roof runs score tied
I didn't feel like 'uh-oh' or anything. I just felt like they tied it up, and now we have to go back and score some more runs again. The way the environment is and the atmosphere here at Minute Maid with the roof closed and the crowd crazy you've got the Bushes kissing on the Kiss-Cam it's an unbelievable environment. It was great.
bit cushion gave pitcher runs today
He's unbelievable. We had not scored too many runs and we gave him a little bit of a cushion today and that allows the pitcher to be a little bit more aggressive.
braves hard hitting obviously pitching saw throwing throws
He throws hard, but I saw where he's not throwing as hard and hitting more spots. That will make it more fun, I guess. He's pitching for the Braves in the playoffs, so he's obviously got some talent.
matter missed
That stat doesn't matter when you're winning. If you lose, you go back and think about the missed opportunities. But when you're winning, it just doesn't matter.
looked third took
I took a peek, ... He looked like he was going back to third base.
affected anybody became changed coached feeling good great guy hurt match pick placing top touch wrestling
That hurt, that changed the match and it affected the way he wrestled. He didn't feel like he could pick Neal up. Neal is very good on his feet. The way Brett was wrestling on Friday, I didn't think anybody would touch him, but it's a great feeling. It's a great feeling for me as a coach. He's the first guy I coached who became an All-American (by placing in the top three).
believe club forget helps hit incredibly manager people supportive
It was frustrating, but I don't think you forget to hit overnight, ... The people here have been incredibly supportive all year. It helps to have a club and a manager that still believe in you even when you struggle.
almost game playing road
It's almost like a road game for us now. We're not used to playing with it open.
boos joke loud
The joke was, how loud are the boos going to be if he didn't play today,
beaten constant series shut struggle team
It's been a constant struggle. We started so bad. We were shut out so many times. We got beaten up early. You see this team in the World Series and say, 'How did it happen?' But here we are.
definitely last means proud series year
It's not a World Series championship ring, but it's definitely something to be proud of. We accomplished something last year that's never been accomplished before. That Drayton would do that for us means even more.
care team
This team doesn't care and we are just going to come out and play hard.
