definitely excited fans game home pleased
We?re definitely pleased to take one game here and take the momentum, ... We?re excited to get home to our fans and that place will be rocking.
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.
definitely second toughest turn
The turn (for the second baseman) is definitely the toughest because your back is to the runner, and you don't really see what's going on.
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.
moments
Big moments like this always go too fast,
amount bit good gotten guess injury pleased quite single taken time tough
Every single day it's gotten quite a bit stronger. He's been real pleased with the amount of time it's taken to come back. It's been tough being out a week, but at the same time, I guess that's pretty good with the kind of injury I had.
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.
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.
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.
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.
hardly hero roy
I was hardly the hero tonight. Roy was great.
