He was making pitches over the corners, not over the middle of the plate.
balls hitting
He's hitting a lot of balls on the nose.
feet felt good kane pitch preserve trying
I didn't want to get (Wise) in with everything on the line. I wanted him to be able to get his feet back on the ground. I felt good with Kane Davis, ... We're doing everything we can to preserve a one-run lead. We're just trying to get to Turnbow. We were one pitch away.
adequate billy quite
I think Billy can play, quite honestly, every day at second, probably every day at short, every day at third, or every day in the outfield. He could be adequate at all those spots.
fits green wall
I really like the board, but the green was a little bright. Now it fits the wall out there.
awesome miller roger
That was an awesome at-bat. You know Roger Clemens is not going to give in, but the thing is, Miller didn't give in either.
guys
Guys that get accelerated are the guys that go through that.
finds good matter trusting
It's a matter of trusting his stuff, ... If he ever finds it and is consistent, he can be a good pitcher.
generally guys spring training
Power-arm guys in spring training generally take a little longer.
season start tough
It's tough when you start the season with the workload that he had.
defined helps
It really helps to have defined roles, and we don't really have that now,
heyday
I don't see anything different with him now than in his heyday when he was at his best.
double surprised turn
It really surprised me that they were able to turn (the double play). I didn't think they had a chance.
anymore goes hurt hurts seconds
He can't hurt it anymore than it already is. When it does hurt, it hurts for about 5 seconds and goes away.
