everybody games good knew looks lose sure
Everybody was sure we would do it, but I knew better. There was no way we would lose 100 games two years in a row! 63-99 looks real good right now!
almost games impossible
That was one of those games when we didn't do anything right. We can't play like that. It would be almost impossible to play like that again.
couple defensive games good mainly playing time
He'll play a couple of games at short, but mainly he'll play second. He'll get a lot of playing time there. We want to see what he can do offensively, we already know he's a good defensive player.
games guy help win
He's a guy that'll help us win some games.
games great runs scoring start win
He was great the way he got out of it that inning. He's going to win a lot of games for us. We've just got to start scoring some runs for him.
baseball heart games
It's amazing what you can do in this game with a heart and a brain
games knew
I knew it was over 100 games. We'd get close, but not over the hump.
everywhere faced game games guys handled newspapers played proud team themselves toughest tv worst
This game was so crazy. It's probably one of the worst games we played in the whole streak. I told the guys after the game that they handled one of the toughest times ever in baseball. A young team faced TV and newspapers and everywhere they read they were scrutinized. I'm proud of them. It was tough, but the guys handled themselves with class.
five games hits struggled win
You're not going to win a lot of games when you get five hits and one run. Offensively, we've just struggled more than you'd like to see.
clicking confidence experience games good struggle winning
This is a good experience for them. Everything isn't clicking just yet, but they'll be a part of a lot of winning games someday. They're young guys. They struggle with their confidence sometimes.
figure fix
We've just got to try to fix it, man. We just have to figure this out.
forget good
We've just got to forget about that and play as good as we can, as long as we can.
everybody hope pitches rotation turn upside
This rotation could turn upside down at some point. I just hope everybody pitches well.
chance might next start
There is a chance that he might make his next start up here, but we don't know that yet.
