reaction
My reaction was, what's next? How are we going to make it better?
guys playing plenty reason
There are plenty of guys who have this, who are playing through it. There is no reason I can't be another one of them.
good people season translate
Physically, I feel fine. I just don't feel so good at the plate. I know people try to translate that to the end of the season, but I don't think that's it at all. I feel I've made it through this season, physically, as well as any season I've played.
basically bob freedom gave green hitting light played plus whenever
(Manager) Bob Melvin gave me a lot of freedom to run. He basically gave me the green light to go whenever I wanted to. Plus I played a lot more than I ever have, and hitting leadoff really helped.
bullpen hit job men scoring
Javy did his job tonight, the bullpen did their job tonight. We couldn't get the hit with men in scoring position.

We had chances. (Martinez) struggled with his command and that got the pitch count up pretty fast but you've got to get that hit that brings in some runs. We just couldn't get it.

ball base pick second throw versus
You know it's really not a lot different, second base versus shortstop. You still pick up the ball and throw it to first base. Try to keep it simple.
happened
I want to play every day, but this happened and there's nothing you can do about it. You just don't want it to get any worse.
far figured opening rest shoulder spring time training
I've got to rest it. My spring training is going to be shorter, for sure. But we got it figured out far enough in advance, where I think I can get the shoulder strong, and be all right by the time opening day comes around.
heck
Oh, my God. What the heck did we do?
anytime best good job
The best thing is that (Hudson) is really good at his job. Anytime you're working with someone who is good at what they do, it makes your job that much easier.
board game huge runs
That's a huge play. Those are runs right there. Two runs off the board so that was a big play. Those are game changers.
attention final pay realize
It's important to realize what's going on because it's the final year. You have to pay attention and be educated.
