depth gets glad looks perception playing stadiums thrown
I'm not making excuses, but I'm glad to be out of that place. It's big. Your depth perception gets thrown off. You're not used to playing in closed-in stadiums anymore. It looks like the ball's going 60 mph, then it's right on you. It's weird.
playing spot
You playing today, LaRue? What is it, a spot start?
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.
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.
baseball football player
At Texas, I was a football player playing baseball. And the way I play I think I still am.
baseball fun play
I have fun. I always have fun. I don't really get in a hurry about anything. I just try to go with the flow and have fun, and that's how I try to play baseball.
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.

I think we've been a couple of players away for a while, ... I think we're still a couple of players away from not just being good, but being really good.
knew
I knew they were going to get it right.
good laying tough younger
It was a good visit, but it was tough to see. To see them laying there like that was hard. A lot of them were younger than me.
couple
It was pretty bad. A couple of them I just misjudged. I'm not going to make excuses.
looked pitches
It looked like those pitches were right there.
instructor lifted time
The instructor was pretty nice. We just goofed off the whole time and lifted weights.
ball gets neck time
Every time I look up, a ball is gone. My neck gets sore.
