ball balls couple effort fairly good threw
I thought he threw the ball fairly well. He got a couple of balls up there, but it was a pretty good effort by Chris.
base depth free great prospect third
We don't have a lot of depth at third base in the system. That's like having a prospect there, but we got him as a sixth-year free agent. That's a great find.
awesome bigger comeback home run
We couldn't have had a bigger home run than we got from Greenie. And then Ramon. That was just as awesome a comeback as I've seen.
full gonna
Well, I've got a full bench, ... and I'm gonna use 'em.
cash chances create golden tough
We had golden opportunities. We just didn't cash in. Those are always tough when you create as many chances as we did and don't execute.
bounce executing trouble
We had trouble executing the whole series. We have to bounce back.
full hit strength
We're not at full strength. I don't want to make an excuse, but it's floored some guys. It's zapped some guys. It's hit us hard.
almost discovered good hard hitter pitch pitchers plate trust walk
We've discovered the hard way there's no way to pitch to him. He's such a disciplined hitter at the plate and has such good plate coverage, it's almost like you can't even trust your pitchers to pitch around him. You've just got to intentionally walk him.
game hit knocked line night starting
Miguel was starting the game that night. But he's out there hitting, and Ash knocked him down by accident. Miguel got right back in there and about hit Ash with a line drive.
bats fair swung
We haven't swung the bats well here, or even on the road, it's fair to say.
came short
We just came up short on way too many opportunities. We had our chances.
build continue fill guys holes next trying winning year
You have to fill some holes each year. Next year will be a different club, too. Ideally, you want to have guys come up through your system, but in the meantime, you want to continue to have winning seasons. What we're trying to do is build some consistency.
asked everybody pitch
Will you pitch to Bonds? That's what everybody asked me.
feats greatest rookies sports
You know what, that's one of the greatest feats in all of sports, ... You know what, it's not that easy. Especially with all of those rookies they've played.
