I still want to take it to that next level,
board guy hurt key needed redeem run spot starting whether
Regardless, we needed to get something on the board with that at-bat. I'm the key guy in that spot to make something happen. I didn't come through. It hurt us right there. We have to get a run in, whether it's a flyball or something else. In that situation, I'm the person you want up there -- I'm the person I want up there. Hopefully, starting tomorrow, I'll have opportunities to redeem myself.
happened last miracle regardless sweep year
Regardless of what happened today, we've got to sweep. We'd need a miracle going for us to sweep them, but you never know. It was a miracle last year with Boston.
spring training veteran
Spring training doesn't matter. Stats don't matter. You take that time, especially the veteran guys, to get ready.
dictate feeling gonna next scoring
I think we're back into feeling comfortable about scoring runs. I think hitting's really gonna dictate how well we do next month.
best good lack offense single trade
I think it's the single best trade we've ever made -- just because of the lack of offense (this year). With Jermaine, our offense was already good and he bettered the offense.
hurt key needed situation
That was a situation where we needed to get something on the board. That was a key at-bat, and I didn't come through. That really hurt us. I wanted to be in that position.
handled impressive performance seen stuff wall worried
I think the way his stuff was and how he handled the hitters, that was the most impressive performance I've seen here. He wasn't worried about the lineup, the (left field) wall or anything like that.
dictate hitting next week
Just a week ago, we couldn't find a hit. Hitting is really going to dictate how well we do the next month.
frank hitting
Jermaine said when Frank was in there, he was hitting everything out of the park. Everything is still there, the stroke, the vision. We just have to keep him healthy.
came glad held onto
It came and went real quickly. I'm just glad we held onto the lead.
came glad held home lead milton sat time
It came and went really quick. I'm just glad we held on to the lead or else (the home runs) would have been for naught..... I didn't even see Frank's swing. And by the time I sat down, Milton went deep.
arm caught couple guess hard kennedy pitchers seen stuck wrong
It didn't look like Kendall stuck his arm out there. It was kind of weird. I guess he just caught Kendall on the wrong moment. That's not hard to do. I think (Lackey) said something to him in Oakland before. I know he's done it before. I've seen a couple pitchers do it. I think that's why him and (Joe) Kennedy got in a fight. Same thing.
balls threw throw
I threw probably 100 balls. That's when it started to go downhill. I I got nervous. What if I can never throw the same again?
