I try not to have personal goals. Personal numbers is a mind-set. The only numbers I care about are in the win column.

circles pressure plates
I don't feel any pressure when I'm up there at the plate. I feel it when I'm in the on-deck circle, but when I'm in the box, it's just me and the pitcher, and I get zoned in.

You don't hit (Johnson), you try to find a mistake. You have to get in there and constantly battle against him.
ball chance couple drive good hard knocks mistakes pop swings throwing
He was throwing hard but he made a couple of mistakes and we were able to take advantage. You pop those mistakes up and it's a different ball game. Fortunately for us we were able to put good swings on the ball and get some knocks and when we had the chance to drive in runs, we were able to do it.
bit bite couple deficit good punch roll runs team tonight worked
This team is not one that's going to roll over and go away. We're going to scratch, we're going to claw, we're going to put good at-bats together, try to get a couple of runs here and there, bite into the deficit a little bit and punch ahead. Tonight it worked out.
