I watched (on TV) when they played the Aztecs, ... They looked good.
bunch enjoyed few goes guys last played series team time
If you look at the last few World Series champions, ... The Angels, and how well that team played together, and the Marlins, a bunch of young guys at that time that just enjoyed being together. That goes a long way.

You've got the best player, possibly, who's ever played this game back to a team that's been playing well. It's one of those things where you try not to get too down on yourself as an organization because we could have put them away.

baseball expected far fare ourselves playing win worried
We expected to win this division, we said it from day one, and we want to go far in the playoffs. We're worried about ourselves playing better baseball because if we don't, we're not going to fare too well in the post-season.

Even if it's below .500, and we get to the postseason, if we go out there and do something special, then I think people will forget about it, ... We've got nothing to lose. Whatever our record is, nobody expects much of us. As long as 25 guys in the clubhouse do, that's all that matters.

I wanted to bring energy out of the gate. After a game like yesterday, you don't want it to snowball. I think that was big for Jake.

We're used to this. The people that it really affects the most are the poorer folks that maybe are renting and might not have the means and transportation to get their possessions moved to higher ground in time. They lose everything.
