This one has to rank up there as maybe the best, coming from a long way back. That just tells a lot about the guys in this clubhouse.
Maybe he read the article where I said that's never happened to me before, ... I mean, I've had some that were questionable - but, come on. I'm sitting on the bench all day, the guy throws a slider at you and it hits you in the middle of the batter's box. That was only my second ejection. I guess I'm a big troublemaker.
Just seeing it in spring training was something that was pretty special. We wanted the winning one, and hopefully we can turn that around and maybe get one.
We're going to the World Series, ... It sounds weird to say if off my lips. Finally the baseball gods shined on us.
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.
We did it for a couple of years, at least, ... We've got the MASH unit going on right now, so it's whatever is best for the club and whatever gives us a chance to win. That's what it's all about.
We tried some of that the other day. That's hard,
Our fans are fired up, and it's great to have an opportunity to have another round with the Cardinals. We have another chance, we have a shot at it. There's only so many that you get. Coming from where we've come from, and to have a chance at this again, it's pretty special.
Overall everyone swung the bats and did everything right,
I think those guys aren't so young anymore,
Some guy in the crowd was trying to be funny and he slapped her upside the head, acting like a 12-year-old, and he ran, ... It was his misfortune that he messed with a Jersey girl. She chased him down and caught him.
My thoughts are to get the team into the wild card and to the post-season again and hopefully the World Series.
The '98 team was probably the most disappointing.
That way I won't have to miss any games. This is the time of year where it's a little bit of a tough time, and she didn't want me to miss any games, anyway.
