juggle tough
It will make it tough for me to juggle FelÃz and Alfonzo.
pitch saying tough
They want to make it tough for him. I'm not saying it's intentional, I'm just saying they won't give him a pitch to hit.

He's a tough kid. We're staying with him.

That could make it tough on him. It's a possibility.
amazing believe complain fly game ground hard hurt loafing played run running saw tough
I never saw him loafing to first. He used to run hard every ground ball, every fly ball, ... It was amazing the way he played the game. Because sometimes you just don't feel like running hard when you think it's going to be an out. If you see him before the game, you didn't believe he was so tough a player. He used to play hurt every day. Used to complain he didn't sleep. But when the game started, he was just marvelous.

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.

I've seen it happen. You think you're going to get better, and you get worse.

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.

It would've been worse if I was watching the game, but I didn't see any of it.

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.

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.
