consistent easier
Getting consistent at-bats... makes it much easier when you're out there.

That means the game's gone extra innings and you need runs. I was just fortunate enough to have the opportunity.

Every time I come up, somebody always seems to be on base.

On Monday, everybody starts at zero. I've got three more days to relax and be more comfortable at the plate.

Someone gets booed - we're all a team, we're all a family, and I think everyone takes it kind of personally.

It was a long day. It's nice to do that, to get us a victory in that heat. It was a nice win for us.
catch hang onto pitcher
That was tough. If I catch that, there are two outs and the pitcher is up. It's frustrating. In the past, I've been able to hang onto them.
base breaks capable forward fun gets guy healthy hopefully single stay tough
You look down and every single guy ... is capable of doing damage. It's pretty tough when you're an opposing pitcher. The leadoff guy gets on base and everything breaks loose. Then you can go down the whole line. It's something to look forward to. Hopefully everyone can stay healthy and it's going to be a fun year.
ball fastball fortunate hit last matter pulled today trouble week
When I'm going well, I'll hit the ball the other way. That's where I got in trouble the last week is that I pulled everything - no matter if it's a fastball away. Today I told myself I'm going to try to go the other way. I was fortunate enough to do it, and I hit everything pretty much. You have to know your strengths.
