full range sore
I wasn't sore today, so I'll give it a shot, ... I have a full range of motion.
again bunt fastball figured threw upset
I was upset about not getting the first bunt down, ... I think they (the Brewers) probably figured I'd be bunting again with Lance on deck, and he (Santos) threw a fastball right down the middle.
hardly hero roy
I was hardly the hero tonight. Roy was great.
batting field fly practice taking time
I think I'll know more after today. It's the first time I'm on the field with batting practice and taking grounders and fly balls. We'll see how it responds.
good industry license sets
Just in general, it's good for a professional industry to have a license because it sets a standard.
We just didn't come up with the big hits. In the end if you do that, you're going to lose.
ahead ball base bunt changed decided extra few figured goes good hit honest innings laying maybe mind normally obviously pitch swing thinking threw worked
We had obviously not done anything for a few innings and I was actually going up there and thinking about laying down a bunt on the first pitch. Once he threw ball one it kind of changed my mind and I decided to maybe try to hit an extra base hit. I figured being ahead in the count, maybe I was going to get a fastball. Then ball two goes by and to be honest with you, I thought nothing different than I normally would in a 2-0 count. (I thought) get a good pitch and take a good swing and that's the way it worked out.
full hopefully quite soon sure
For sure it's not quite at full strength, but hopefully soon enough it will be there,
good lying might relaxing stand thinking work
I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about how it all might work out. I had a blast. The thing about the outfield, it can be pretty relaxing out there if you have good at-bats. If you don't, you stand out there thinking about them.
guess guys hitting nice sick situation super
Obviously, I was sick to my stomach. But he's a super nice guy. It's a situation where, if it was going to be one of those guys hitting the homer, I guess I'd like it to be him.
couple guys help hopefully maybe might order pressure runs strength takes time top
Obviously, like most teams, the top of our order is where the strength is at, ... But any time we (at the bottom) can do something to help out, hopefully it takes a little pressure off those guys and maybe give us a couple more runs than we might not get otherwise.
counts favorable good gotten nobody surprised
Nobody is more surprised than I am. At the same time, I've been in favorable counts and gotten good pitches.
bunt laying thinking
I was going up there thinking about laying down a bunt the first pitch,
again basis chances continue daily hopefully improve optimistic playing
I'm a lot better, ... Hopefully if I can continue to improve on a daily basis as much as I did, I feel optimistic about my chances of playing again soon.
