plain second
The second half, we collapsed. Plain and simple.
missed
The times we've made mistakes, they haven't missed them. That's the only explanation I have for you.
game means playing
Every game here means something. We're not just playing it out.
cigar fat guy sign
Metaphorically speaking, we got the fat guy with the cigar to come down and sign us up.
changes game obviously scope
He obviously changes the whole scope of the game when he's in the lineup. It's obvious he's at a whole other level.
bit cat facing far hands hat hopefully later mound slow time tip
You have to tip your hat to that cat over there who was on the mound for them. That's why he is who he is. Any time he's on the mound and he's facing you, you've got your hands full. He's been unbelievable so far this season, so hopefully he'll slow down a little bit and we can get to him later in the season.
danger
We think there is a real danger there.
few finish gone last second throw
We've come a long way. The second half, obviously, hasn't gone the way we wanted. That's an understatement. But we don't want to throw it all away these last few weeks. We've got to finish strong.
everybody seems
It seems as if everybody has a cutter now. It's pretty effective.
biggest trusting
The biggest thing for him is trusting it.
bunch burden good heavy trying
We're a bunch of good businessmen here trying to make a living. This will be a heavy burden on us.
emotions fans fed ran
We ran the whole gamut of emotion. We fed off these fans all the way.
ball obviously took
Absolutely. Obviously we're all hurting, but he didn't have to go out there and pitch. He took the ball and went out there and battled.
bring competition games happen learning people tends
I think a lot will happen when the (exhibition) games start. Competition tends to bring people together. Right now, we're still learning each other.
