driving good hits pride
It's a good feeling. This is why I'm here. I take a lot of pride in getting big hits and driving in big runs.
cold hit
It was cold out there, it was windy. But I hit that good, though.
hit played
We were a hit away. They played a little better than us.
expect extremely hit pitching throw
We've been pitching extremely well. We can't expect to throw a shutout every night. They hit more than us.
driving hits pride
I take a lot of pride in getting big hits and driving in big runs.
good hit
I hit it on the good part of the bat, but I was out in front. I'll take it.
ball far hit pitcher seen since swing
I haven't seen a ball hit that far in a long time. You've been working on your swing since you're 5 years old. This guy's a pitcher and he just hit it 700 feet. Whatever.
like-you ifs
If you hit, they're going to like you. If you don't hit, they're not going to like you.
thinking ideas want
I think nobody can get me out. I've got a pretty good idea of what I want to hit. If I get my pitch, I'm going to get a hack in. And if I don't get you this time, I'll get you next time. I'm not saying I'm better than anybody, but I am saying that nobody is better than me.
fun games steps
If you can't smile and have fun, you're in trouble. So if somebody in the stands says hello, I'm going to say hello back. Why shouldn't I? I know what I'm doing in this game. I'm still going to be ready to hit when I step in the box.
running smart home
I learned the hard way. When I started hitting home runs, I thought, I can hit these pitches. Then I started thinking, if I can do this, I can hit the pitch four inches outside or four inches up. I expanded the zone and got myself out. Pitchers are smart. If they find out they don't have to throw strikes, they won't.
simple guy fancy
I'm a simple guy. There's nothing fancy about my life.
smart mistake games
You've got to be smart to stay in this game. The quicker you learn, the quicker you succeed. You can't make the same mistakes over and over again.
long battle trying
There's gonna be good times and bad times. When the good times come you got to ride it as long as you can. And when the bad times come you got to battle and try to get out of there as soon as you can.
