excuse four hitting home last
We haven't been hitting the last four games. Getting home at 5:15 isn't an excuse for that.
bat chance devil game job last plays pleasant smart surprise
He was a pleasant surprise last year. They said his bat was not that good, and he did an outstanding job for us. Defensively, he's good. He plays the game hard, he's a smart kid. I think he's got a chance (to play for the Devil Rays).
everybody seen tv
That's unfortunate. I've seen what everybody else has seen on TV and that's it. I don't know anything else about the case.
bringing nobody
We've been getting on base, but nobody is bringing them in.
chances guys pitchers pitches
We had chances to get more guys home. Give their pitchers credit. They also made big pitches when they had to.
bats confident expect start swinging
I expect us to start swinging the bats pretty good. I'm confident we're going to start swinging the bats better.
chance everybody guy jump major nobody oldest uniform wants
Nobody wants to be the oldest guy in the clubhouse, but everybody has their role. Everybody has their chance. It's like I tell them: As long as you've got a uniform on, you've always got a chance to play in the major leagues. It's not a big jump from here.
coach goes guys knows lead lights
Those two guys are lights out. (Pitching coach Xavier Hernandez) and me don't even have to talk. If we have the lead after seven, he knows who goes in.
bad easy good hitter pitcher three train
It's not easy to do. Three things have to go right: The pitcher has to make a bad pitch, the train has to be going by and the hitter has to have a good swing.
chance hit
Owens has power. He always has a chance to hit one out.
bad train
That was a bomb. Too bad a train wasn't going by.
add ball understand
I went back down to Double-A ball after being up. I understand what it's like. It's not easy, but I know he can add a lot here.
behind
He's a leader. That's what we want from him behind the plate.
god hit known since thank
He's been doing that ever since I've known him. Thank God he hasn't hit anybody.
