It's hard to swallow this right now. This can be a dividing point. We'll see what kind of team we have now.

affect best bright coming early facing lights seeing single spring
It's going to affect everybody. The bright lights are coming on awfully early this year. I sometimes go the whole spring without seeing any of the horses, without facing a single big-league hitter. Now, it's going to be nothing but. I'm going to be facing the best right off the bat.
goes great
Dontrelle pitched great and he got the loss. It's not very fair. That's the way it goes though.

It's easy to say stuff like that when there's only a week to go in the season. A.J.'s a free spirit. He's got to live with his comments.

That's kind of the good thing about being a reliever. You can just keep going.

To be able to hand him the ball after the game is special. A thousand wins is a lot for a manager. If you put all of the managers I've played for together, I don't think they had 1,000 wins.

You feel kind of stupid actually handing out Marlin T-shirts to somebody like that.

knew matter north prepared rivalry team
We knew we were going to get everything they had. North and Statesville, it's a big rivalry game. It doesn't matter if one team is 0-20 and the other is 20-0. You've got to come out prepared to play.

Very excited to be in the championship game. Lake Norman gave us all we could handle.
