No one in this clubhouse is dwelling on our record,
games reference swagger
Now, we can have some swagger in these late-inning games because we have done it before. We have a reference point.
blood expected guys smell
When those guys have the lead, they smell blood. No one expected anything from us.
good hard
I feel great. It was good for my alignment. It's hard to describe, but I feel good.
season
What a season. I've never been through a season like this.
occasion rise says sean
With everything he has been through this year, for Sean to rise to the occasion like that, it says a lot about his character.
coming good series
We've got a good mind-set. We're relaxed. Coming into this series we were the underdogs. We've got nothing to lose, and I think that we'll go out and play like it.
baseball expect game giants knew scoreboard staff takes watch win won
This was a very big game for us. We don't want to scoreboard watch too much, but we knew the Giants had won (in Washington). Jake is our staff ace, and he is our stopper. When he takes the mound, we expect to win baseball games.
good guys kinds offensive swing teams trying understand work
trying to get guys to understand that you have to work the count, you have to swing at strikes, do all those kinds of things good teams do on the offensive end. But they just haven't been able to do it.
best game played playing team
Obviously, it makes it a lot more interesting. You've got the best player, possibly, who's ever played this game back to a team that's been playing well.
code deal far gets hoping open people security software source
It's not necessarily that the open source software never has security incidents. It's that there are far more people to deal with incidents. In the proprietary world, you're hoping really that the code never gets out into hackers' hands. It's really security by obscurity.
body difference injuries supposed
It's made a big difference in the way I feel. Injuries sometimes can't be prevented, but I feel my body is working the way it's supposed to work.
definitely easier genuinely guys overcome spend time together tough
It's definitely not overrated. When you spend so much time together you have to have guys get along. You're going to have some tough times, and when guys can genuinely get along, then it makes it a lot easier to overcome some of the adversity.
ball blew both cut felt hit hoping knee thumb tried
The ball was in between, and we both tried to cut it off. I felt my knee hit him pretty good. I was hoping it wasn't too serious. I didn't see a replay. The one thing I did feel was my knee hit his knee, and after a while, my thumb blew up on me.
