adam ball caught double second turn
I should have caught the first ball and (shortstop) Adam (Davis) was right there (to turn the double play). To have a second chance, I like that a lot.
ball bigger feels felt finally hitting lately lead
It felt good. The way things have been going, I've been hitting the ball well lately and I've been hitting it right at people. To finally get one in the gap, it feels good. To give us a bigger lead felt real good.

Last year opening day was quite an experience. This year I was a lot more relaxed.
