fast good help nice pitcher run
But it was good to help us get off to a fast start. It's always nice when you get any pitcher a run in the first. And Brandon pitched real well tonight.
andy comeback double early four good great huge played plays runs series three today
Obviously, today four runs was enough, ... Andy pitched great and we played good defense. We had three double plays early that were big. The way the series started, that was a huge comeback to get two wins.
balls bat certain coming good guys head jumps
There are certain guys who get good jumps on balls, and there are other guys who see the bat head coming through and they know where the ball's going. That's Adam. You just take it for granted.
across came good hit today took
Today we just took our lumps. We came across a good pitcher, and he pitched well and hit his spots.
good kidding runs score step three
Us? We don't know how to do that. Are you kidding me? There's no way. We did score three runs today, so that's a good thing. It's a big step in the right direction.
good seen throws
He throws hard, he's got a good slider. We haven't seen him before, which is not good for us, historically.
andy biggest everybody good hour imagine knew last miles performance pitching saw throwing tough velocity waste year
It was a good pitcher's duel, but it would have been tough to waste that pitching performance by Andy. The biggest thing with Andy was getting his velocity back. Everybody in here knew that once he did, you're going to see what you saw before. When he's throwing that cutter at 83-84-85 miles an hour last year and getting away with it then, you could only imagine what it was going to be like when he started getting it up to 90-91.
enjoy good month
It's a good day. Hopefully, we'll play another month and really enjoy it.
catch game good guy hat percent square time tip
About 99.9 percent of the time he comes in, and it's game over. He's nasty, he's got good stuff. He's still got it. You tip your hat to any guy that can square up and catch up to it.
bad good guys team
They got some guys on and we had one bad play. But, once again, they've got a good team over there, and for us to come out here and take two out of three, we'll take it.
bad certain forget game good guarantee happen home playoff rocket run
You're never going to forget certain things that happen to you in this game. And a three-run home run off the Rocket in his first playoff game -- I guarantee you he'll never forget that . It was good for him, just bad for us.
fill nobody piece rocket
Without Rocket being around, nobody is going to fill those shoes. But Brandon is a big piece of our puzzle. He understands what he can and can't do. He is going to be a big part of this.
real lying hands
He's a little deceiving. He doesn't have a real good arm slot as far as trying to pick the ball up out of his hand. He made some pretty good pitches when he had to.
guy trying bats
We had some pretty good at-bats off Carpenter. We just couldn't find any holes. That's the way it goes sometimes. We were able to get some guys on but weren't able to get them in early. We did some little things right, we got some guys on, we got some walks. We take it one batter at a time and everybody tries to stay within their own limitations. We did that, we just didn't get the big hit to get them in.
