definitely expecting forget good people played quick start
We had a good spring, we played a lot better than this. I know everybody's expecting good things with the new people in here, and you definitely don't want to start like this, but you put this one away and forget about this as quick as you can because it's a long season.
against ball ballpark good hit luck pitch time tough
He's had some tough luck against these guys, so it's good to see him come out and pitch the way he did. Any time you can do that here against a lineup that can hit the ball out of the ballpark like them, that's impressive.
good work
He's a good dude. There were times we'd look over and tell him that anything he could get to take it, because we were still a work in progress.
bad figured game good might needed pinch saturday
The game was close, so I figured I might get to pinch hit. I had a bad game Saturday and had been battling. I needed to relax. That (hit) was good to see.
everybody knows plan stick striving winning
It's important anywhere. The winning organizations, that's what they have. They have a plan and stick with it. Everybody knows what's going on and knows what to expect. That's what we're striving to get to, I guess.
game opening president worst
It's disappointing because it's Opening Day, the president is here and everyone was excited. And we go out and play probably the worst game we'll play all season.
call definitely
They call him 'The Mayor' for a reason. He definitely has a lot of fans.
deal excuse last people planned
They wanted me to come in lighter. I planned on doing it anyway, just because such a big deal was made out of that last year. I didn't want people to use that as an excuse.
blowing seen worst
The worst I've ever seen here. Up high, it was blowing out. But down low, it was blowing in hard.
ugly
It was ugly on our part. They didn't play that well either. It wasn't a very pretty game.
average means
My average was by no means where I want it to be.
arm losing lost months nice past season situation three top
Losing is no fun. And we've lost here for a while. We've had some opportunities in the past where the first two or three months of the season we were on top of the division. We could have used another arm or two, and we hadn't done it. It's nice to know that now that same situation would be different.
crazy stuff
Some crazy stuff has happened. It's been a long year.
definitely games needed supposed win
We definitely needed to win this game. These are the games we're supposed to win.
