bit coming definitely playing reason since
Since the All-Star game, we've been playing a little bit better. That's definitely a big reason why he's coming back.
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.
baseball play done
In my opinion I really haven't done anything yet. I still have a lot to prove. I just want to prove to myself that I can play at the highest level of baseball in the world every day.

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.
