guarantees high million payroll spend
A high payroll guarantees you wins. It doesn't guarantee you championships. If you let me spend $100 million or more every year, I guarantee you I'll play over .500.
high kite
It's terrible, you're high as a kite one minute.
high mistake walking
It's terrible. You're high as a kite. The mistake we make is walking Edmonds.
feeling high kite
It's terrible. You're high as a kite one minute. We were feeling pretty good, but you have to play every out.
ball ballpark club easy face guys high hit
They have guys that can get on base, they have guys that can hit the ball out of the ballpark and hit for a high average. So they are not an easy club to have to face and they are not an easy club to defend.
although best both control downhill game gets great heat high hope looks people pitch seen sides
I feel that we have not seen his best game, although I can see why people are very high on him. He has a great downhill tilt, he looks like when he gets his game together, he can control both sides of the plate. He's down in the zone. I would hope he would go down there and pitch right from the get-go and put a little heat on us up here.
pick scientific
Pick 'em out of a hat. We just need somebody. Nothing scientific in the formula.
stuck top
No, ... He snow-coned it. Stuck to the top of his glove.
balls complete guy pitches throws
The guy throws 95 pitches and pitches a complete ballgame, so we didn't put too many balls in play.
remembered series win
If you can get into the World Series and win the World Series in Houston, you can be remembered forever.
electric people wound
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.
