good hitting numbers overly pull seeing trying
I've been seeing lefthanders good all year. I know my numbers stink. I think I've been overly aggressive, trying to pull everything. I'm not doing anything different -- just hitting it more.
assume average baseball hit hitting home life people runs tried until
People assume I can't hit for average. I've hit for average all my life, until I got up here. It's not because I can't. It's because people have tried to get me to hit more homers. I'll hit even more home runs when I'm hitting the way I can.
ball gets neck time
Every time I look up, a ball is gone. My neck gets sore.

I wish we had put on a better display for him.

We can put up runs. We're a team I don't think a lot of teams want to face with stuff on the line.

I'm standing at the plate thinking, Where are my hands? Where's this, where's that? Before I know it, the pitch is there and I'm completely out of rhythm.

If we're healthy we're as good as anyone. Hopefully we stay that way.

Since the All-Star game, we've been playing a little bit better. That's definitely a big reason why he's coming back.
chance good score since
Since I've been here, we haven't had this very often. We know if we score runs, we've got a pretty good chance to win.
chance happen since time winning
Since I've been here, it doesn't happen very often. You go out there and know every time he's on the mound, you know what you're going to get. We know if we score, we've got a chance of winning that game.
best secret time tried
It's no secret that's what we need. They tried to (improve) it as best they could in as little time as they had.
best gather good knew plays saw
That's one of the best crews out there. When I saw them huddling, I knew they were going to get it right. I think that's one of those plays that you see them not overturn it more than you see them overturn it. It was good to see them gather 'round and get it right.
