both hit innings rule unwritten
You hit one of their big guys, they're going to go after one of our guys. It's kind of an unwritten rule in baseball. Obviously, you don't want to get hit, but we've been able to put up big innings both times it's happened.
hit lives playing pressure
We've put pressure on that team, we just haven't come up with the big hit yet. We're playing for our lives now.

I had it, ... My wrist was over the wall. When my glove hit the top of the wall, it popped out. When it snapped back is when it popped out.

He got a pitch out over the plate -- probably a mistake -- and I hit it on a line. Hit it high here, and it's not going to go.

We haven't gotten to see a full season from Khalil Greene. I'm curious to see what kind of numbers he would throw up if he is healthy for a full season. He's got some of the quickest hands you'll see as a hitter and on defense he has some of the softest hands.

He's so popular that if he hits a home run and we congratulate him, fans are mad if we hit him too hard on the helmet.
ball definitely hitting pathetic tough
It's definitely frustrating. We're not hitting the ball at all. It's tough to be as pathetic offensively as we've been.

When you haven't been a free agent, it's intriguing, a new experience. It's not something I've been through before. I've always had a contract.

Why don't you ask him if it'll be special to play next to me?
ball coach defense game gave glad
This was a really big game for us. I was just glad coach (Ben Waddle) gave me the ball and let me throw. I just let my defense do the work.
