bigger face gets
I don't think it gets any bigger than that, to face Clemens in the first inning of the World Series,
asked crazy guy
I kind of asked the guy a crazy question,
mentally mind trusting worrying
For the most part, it's just mentally getting over the hurdle, trusting it, being able to go out and put it in the back of my mind to where I'm not worrying about it.
fans might offensive waiting
If fans are waiting for an offensive explosion, ... they might have to wait awhile.
bad battle change definitely far feeling hope looking mind positive ready
I definitely hope this is something that can get me going. I'm not feeling that bad up there, actually, because I feel like I am close. I'm not looking that far into it where I need to change mechanically. I think it's about getting up there and getting my mind right, getting a little more positive at the plate. I just need to go up there ready to battle each at-bat, not give anything away.
approach felt last loose prepare somewhat sure
It's up to me to go out and prepare myself, to make sure I get good, loose and hot. I think that was somewhat our approach (rest) last year. I felt pretty strong.

The big thing was to get runners on base and drive them in. We got a whole team effort and Jose Contreras pitched a great game and kept down their hitters. It's a nice way to start, so now we have to keep this up.
felt further hoping treadmill work
That is what we are hoping for. I did some work on the treadmill (Wednesday) and it felt pretty good. We are a little further than we anticipated.
continue gaining hard matter percent point quite running strength time treatment
It wasn't real hard to make a decision. It's been nagging on me for quite some time now and it got to the point where I can't continue on. I have probably been running 60 to 70 percent so it's matter of getting in there and getting some treatment on it and gaining some strength back.

I walked to the plate trying to get on base,
drive good pitch
It was a good pitch to hit, ... and I was able to drive it out.
given hit home less run timing tough
It will be a tough home run to top, given the timing and when and where it happened. I don't hit too many home runs, no less a walk-off home run in the World Series.
trying
I was just trying to get on base.
