appreciation dream hit moment setting type
This type of hit in this setting is a dream come true, ... It was a moment that was too short-lived and I won't have an appreciation for it for a long time.
baseman both difficult double job present second sides turning
Both sides present a lot of difficulties turning the double play, but I'd say the second baseman has the most difficult job turning it.
advised dave slide whenever
Dave advised me to slide feet-first whenever possible.
breakout carry doctor game hopefully nice ordered rest
It was nice to get rolling. A breakout game is hopefully what the doctor ordered for us right now, and hopefully we can carry it over the rest of the week.
finished microcosm
It was kind of a microcosm of our season, ... Started out slow, finished strong.
hit home last looking maybe price series talked wife
It's very ironic. My wife talked about it last night. I think he's actually looking to unload it. Maybe he can up the price on it now because he hit a World Series home run.
bats best fortunate hits hoping knowing luckily swing
The best part about it is knowing that we don't have to go back to Atlanta, ... We had some bats out of the lineup and everyone was kind of hoping that we were going to do it with just one swing of the bat. Luckily I was the guy. I am fortunate to have big hits at all levels, but this is very gratifying.
fun hopefully
It's been nice, it really has, but we've got a long way to go. It's been a fun ride, and hopefully I can keep it going.
beat hits teams
It's just unfortunate we're not stringing any hits together, and to beat the better teams we're going to have to play more consistent.
ball rule second thumb
It's a rule of thumb for me if I'm at second when he has the ball I try to go for three.
field hopefully second spoken spot tough wait
It's a tough spot. Obviously, Craig's the second baseman. Really, every spot on the field is spoken for. I'm going to have to wait and see and hopefully get in there as much as possible.
deal felt good last month realize season short six span weeks
I try not to make too big a deal out of it. It's kind of a short span of at-bats. I realize postseason at-bats are all magnified, but at the same time, I felt pretty good the last month or six weeks of the season also.
awkward definitely fun good time
It was definitely awkward being out there at shortstop. It was fun (and) exciting. I had a good time with it.
maybe
It will just be a footnote. Then maybe we won't have to see it replayed for years and years and years.
