brings electric enthusiasm hate slide
As a hitter, you hate to see that electric slide move. He brings a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of energy.
bring playing wants
Not yet. But bring it on. He's probably playing for quarters. If he wants to play a real game, he can come see me.
ball batting bringing expect facing guys hours practice specialist took tough
It's tough without any at-bats to go up there and expect to see the ball well. You're cold, you took batting practice hours ago. Not only is there a lot of pressure, but you're usually facing one of the better guys out of the bullpen, a specialist they're bringing in.
bring difference guys hits job nobody phenomenal run
These guys have all done a phenomenal job of getting hits at the right time. It's a big difference between getting a hit with two outs and nobody on and getting a hit to bring a run home, especially with two outs.

I'm just trying to keep up with him. He's the one setting the pace.

It's still a game and you'd rather win it than lose it.

It?s not as complicated procedure to take them down.

It's not a fun experience. Hopefully, it doesn't happen again.
base bat behind drive everybody fortunate guys hitting pitches position runners scoring wants
Everybody wants the bat in their hands, and I was fortunate to come up with guys on base and to be in a position to see a lot of pitches with the guys hitting behind me. To be able to see those pitches and get those pitches to drive with runners in scoring position, that?s big.
good harder hit hope pitch tried
It was just a good pitch that I tried to do too much with and popped up. I would hope that more times than not, I would hit that pitch a lot harder than I did tonight.

This is a very historic and rare monument for the state of Tennessee and for the United States.

This is like an offensive dream, being a part of this lineup the past couple of days.
