barry fun last looked outfield played practice today year
Barry played in the outfield during practice today and looked pretty good. Barry is having fun again. He didn't have any fun last year because he was hurt.
league looked series team wrote
It looked like a World Series American League team when I wrote it.
alright looked
He should be alright by the weekend. They looked and they didn't find anything of concern. It just stiffened up.
field home left ready run
We just want to get him ready on defense. To see him play left field now was more important than the home run he hit.
days effect games playing pushing
We were pushing him to get off to a start. He was fresh. Now the effect of playing all those games showed up two days ago.
seen
I've seen it happen. You think you're going to get better, and you get worse.
looks physically pitch seems seen stronger throwing
I've seen him pitch a lot. He looks stronger physically from what I've seen and seems to be throwing harder. He's (looking) a lot better.
watching worse
It would've been worse if I was watching the game, but I didn't see any of it.
changed deal dealing easy man since
It was very hard, but it was easy because when you deal with a man like that, everything is easy. I've been dealing with him since he was 22. He hasn't changed as a person.
everybody last life likes love missing since velocity
It was very difficult. He just hasn't been the same pitcher. His velocity was down, and he had no life on his fastball. That has been missing since last year. Personally, I love him and the way he plays. Everybody likes him.
found fun low
The writers, ... used to make fun of us. I found it to be ? ridiculous. I found it to be low class. I found it to be prejudiced. I found it to be ignorant.
inside
Ellison has done everything. He's got the inside track. He's the favorite.
difference feeling
There's a feeling of urgency, because we know the difference that he could make for us.
goes good time win
Pretty good lefty, huh? Every time he goes to pitch, we feel like we're going to win the game.
