nice night tough ugly win
It was a nice win on a very ugly night and tough conditions.
brad send time whatever win
Most of the time you send Brad back out there, but this isn't most of the time. We're going to try to do whatever we have to do to win games.
baseball fun goes heart intense wants win
He's pretty intense right now. No one wants to win any more than Johan. He's all about winning. That's why it's fun to have him on your baseball team. When he goes out there, you can see it in his heart that he wants to win for this baseball team.
winning
Not as winning as we wanted it to be, but it's a winning season. That's important.
awards bit good happy last matter tells winning
No matter how good he did, he wasn't very happy at the end of last year. It wasn't about the awards or anything else. It was about us not winning - and not getting back to the playoffs. That tells you a little bit about his makeup.
cleveland hope huge win
That win was huge for this ballclub. We go to Cleveland and we still have hope.
bore expect full guys hard loss stop team trying win
It's another disappointing loss for us. The guys are battling. We've got to win games, and we're going to try as hard as we can. I expect this team to go out full bore and win. We'll never stop trying to do that.
bottom line matter start winning
It wasn't pretty, but the bottom line is you've got to start winning games. It doesn't matter how you do it.
choked nice
That one kind of choked me up. I thought that was a pretty nice thing by big Buck.
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.
terry throw
Terry doesn't throw out 'very good' very often.
face help learn people serious understand wants
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.
