Yeah, I've played for seven or eight years. I'm in two or three leagues, including one here and with friends at home. We pick lineups each week, and ...
bit dominating hit throw wants

against certain hate playing
He's the kind of guy, if you're on the other team, you hate playing against him. When he's one of your teammates, you know why he does certain things.
pitch pop realize strike
I didn't realize it was up around my shoulders. If he makes that pitch 99 more times, I probably strike out 75 times and pop up the other 24 times. I just got lucky, I think.

I didn't play on any of the other teams in the past 88 years here, so I'm not part of that history, ... I'm on the 2005 team and that's all I really care about.

As far as him quitting, I hope not, I'd like to come back here next year, but he has to do whatever's best for him, best for his family and best for his health.
bats swinging throwing
It was a combination of us not swinging the bats and he was throwing it well.
everybody game until win
It's another game off the schedule, ... Until they tell us it's clinched or everybody else is mathematically eliminated, we'll try to win every game.

Theresa tells me things happen for a reason.
flow last memories nice work
It's nice to get out there and get back into the flow a little bit. Try not to think of the memories of last year. It's a new year, and we have a lot of work to do.
