ask good guys hoping run took tying winning
We had our guys up there in the eighth, and you can't ask for more than that. What you're hoping for there is to get the tying or winning run on, and we did both, but they got a very big out. Randa took a pretty good swing, but just got it up in the air.
consistent streak together winning
We're disappointed we haven't been more consistent and put together a winning streak here.
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.
bottom fought hard line winning
We fought hard to try to get back to winning the game, ... but the bottom line is we didn't play well tonight.
anytime concerned game losing nice spring win winning
It's only spring training, but no question, anytime you win a game like that it's important. We're not as concerned with winning and losing in the spring, but that was a nice comeback.
bottom came couple difference foot fought hard innings line ourselves shot winning
We shot ourselves in the foot a couple innings there, and that was the difference in the ballgame. We fought hard to try to get back to winning the game, and came close, but bottom line is we didn't play well tonight.
fine line shows winning
That shows you what a fine line it is between winning and losing.
anytime battling character eight heart runs shows winning
I think anytime you're down eight runs and you end up getting the winning run at the plate, I think that shows a lot of character and heart of the club. They were battling to the end.
cyclical kept nice roll winning
We've been very cyclical with our hitting. That's what has kept us from getting on a roll and a nice winning streak.
finish finished game great talk win winning
It was great to win this division, but we really wanted to finish with a winning season, ... I know there's going to be a lot of talk about it, but there would have been more talk if we'd have finished at .500. This was a big game for us, to finish on this note.
ball granted took
took for granted that the ball went out and he tossed it into the stands. He thought it was out. That's why he did what he did.
balls batting bullpen gives practice sure track
We just wanted to make sure we get our bullpen back in order. It gives him (Cameron) a day to track down balls and take batting practice and he's going to go tomorrow.
approach granted greatest hitters hopefully mean past pitches quality swinging treat
We're going to approach him the way we always have and just take for granted that he's going to be swinging the way he usually swings. I mean this guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time, so we're not going to treat him any differently. We'll try to approach him the same way we have in the past and that's to make quality pitches and hopefully not make a mistake.
approach greatest hitters pitches playing quality
We're going to approach him like we always have, as if he's been playing all season. This guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time. You want to make quality pitches and not make mistakes.
