gets good handled himself knows lazy sloppy talked
He gets a little lazy at times on the drills. But he knows what he's doing on the mound. He's a good fielder; he just gets a little sloppy at times. We talked to him about that. He's handled himself very well.
busted talked
He busted his butt down the line. He was out. Shannon probably talked a little too much. It's frustration.
diets-and-dieting feeling fun married talked
He said he was doing better. He talked about being on a diet, working out, getting to feeling better, and talked of getting married in June. It was fun to see him again.
baseball bit game good gotten grown known people practice presence sloppy talked year
The story has always been with him that he's a sloppy practice guy, but a good game guy. He's gotten better at his practice now, and a lot of people talked to him about that, working on some drills. He's grown up a little bit and made his presence known this year in camp.

That one kind of choked me up. I thought that was a pretty nice thing by big Buck.

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.

It's a boring kind of thing, really. I think common sense pretty much tells you where it is.

I can't see Rad not wanting to go out there.

Terry doesn't throw out 'very good' very often.

This is serious, very serious, and a lot of people are going to learn from this. We're going to help him get through this thing and make him understand how serious this is. He wants to face the penalty, and that's the right thing to do.
classy help presence ready takes whatever
A presence like his can only help. He's a pretty classy man. He told me he's ready to do whatever it takes to help. If I need him to help some young kids, he'll do that.

Our hearts and our prayers are all with Puck. We know its a tough situation out there.

He can do those things. That's what we envisioned when he got him over here.
