heard leaves perspective puts
When we heard about (Barmes), we were thinking, 'That's terrible, what are we going to do,' ... Then the skipper leaves and his daughter's having seizures, and it puts it all back in perspective really quick.
good pitchers seen
We've seen some pretty good pitchers this year. And this is a young team. Many of them haven't seen pitchers like this.
time
There are no more excuses. It's time to put it on the line. It's time to win.
face hard minutes rather smile takes walk
I'd rather make that walk when we won, ... It's kind of hard 2 minutes after the game's over and we lose. It takes a little while to take (a loss) off. It's kind of hard to walk around there with a smile on your face when you just lost, but you got to do it for the fans.
negative watch
I watch the film, so I know what I've done off a guy. I don't look at it as a positive, just like I don't look at it as a negative if I haven't done well off a guy.
hit knew
When I hit it I knew it was gone. I got all of it and it was a big hit at the time.
