forget hard work
I've got to forget about (Wednesday), work hard and do my job.
feet move straight throw
Sometimes when my feet are slow, my throw (to first base) isn't good. But when I move my feet, the throw is straight every time.
base game hit win
My first base hit to win a game in the big leagues.
defense great hopefully
I feel more comfortable with my defense and, with my offense, I think I can do the job. If I can keep working like I have hopefully it's going to be a great year.
came helped ready saw
That helped me a lot. When I came here I was ready to play because I saw a lot of pitching.
stay tried
I tried to make the play too fast. That's what I have to learn. Stay aggressive, but try to do the routine. Don't try to do too much.
offense
I'm working hard. Everything with my offense is going right, right now.
