across bad eyebrow plain sweating wiped
He did not go to his mouth. He was sweating profusely on his face. He wiped his eyebrow across his nose, and (Dreckman) called it on his face. It was a bad call, plain and simple.
badly beaten celebrate change matter
They have beaten us up pretty badly this year. They have really thumped us pretty good. Just as a matter of pride, we would not want to see them celebrate here again. We'd like to change that.
bad chance meets
I told him it would be better if he just meets us in Houston. There's a chance he wouldn't even make it in. We shouldn't be in too bad of shape.

It was a bad call. It was a wrong call, ... He didn't go to his mouth on the mound. He was simply sweating profusely on his face and was wiping it away.

Pick 'em out of a hat. We just need somebody. Nothing scientific in the formula.

No, ... He snow-coned it. Stuck to the top of his glove.

The guy throws 95 pitches and pitches a complete ballgame, so we didn't put too many balls in play.

If you can get into the World Series and win the World Series in Houston, you can be remembered forever.

I just think it would be electric for the city. People are just so wound up.
fortunate works
He's puffed up pretty good. I think he'll be able to play on Friday. We're fortunate to have the off-day tomorrow. That works well.
coming games good job ours runs somehow time trait typical
It's just something that's been a trait of ours all year, but we managed to win. It's like some of our typical games and somehow we managed to get through it. We didn't eke one out this time and that's unfortunate because we had been doing a pretty good job of coming up with runs somehow.
factor
I think it was a factor for Andy. It started to swell up, ... Unbelievable.
