choked nice
That one kind of choked me up. I thought that was a pretty nice thing by big Buck.
carries few hurt knew nice presence rodriguez searching
Rodriguez knew that if he made a mistake, he was going to get hurt. That was the presence we have been searching for. Having him there with a few other guys, there's a presence there that you have to make some pitches. It carries over and that was nice to see.
besides character family fits great man mold nice players third ways
You can use him a lot of different ways besides just at third -- first base, DH. He can do a lot of things and he can hit. He's also a very nice man with great family so he fits the mold for us. We're not just after players but players with character and he fits that.
nice night tough ugly win
It was a nice win on a very ugly night and tough conditions.
nice relax
It was nice to get a lead, relax a little bit, and get Radke some runs.
clubhouse nice smiles
It was nice to see some smiles in the clubhouse for once.
center nice number patch time
It's nice to see that number out there in center field. And we've got that (No. 34) patch on our uniforms, and every time I look at it I think of him.
bit choked nice puck
It choked me up a bit to see that. That was a nice thing by Big Buch. He was around Puck enough to really know him.
bit came coming good groove guys home nice playing road series tough
It was a very nice series for us, after coming off a tough road trip. We came back home and did what you have to do to get righted. Guys are now getting into a bit of a groove and playing good ball.
gives looking nice
It gives us those 82 wins, which is what everyone was looking for. It's not enough for us, but it's nice for the organization.
faces man nice throw
Garza did fine. He's got a nice-looking arm. He's going to be a nice-looking pitcher. It's nice to get to see the young man throw the ball. You like to put faces with names.
arguing ball catch great job looked pitcher pitchers start turned wood
Their pitcher was aware. Wood did a great job there. Most pitchers would catch the ball and start arguing with the umpire. He was very aware. He turned around looked home. He did a great job on that play.
boring common tells
It's a boring kind of thing, really. I think common sense pretty much tells you where it is.
wanting
I can't see Rad not wanting to go out there.
