He's gotten better every time out, and that's really a plus. Today, he was starting to feel comfortable (and) he looked comfortable.
absolutely except perfect rob
Rob was perfect the whole day except for one inning. Absolutely perfect.
ahead ball breaking count threw
He was ahead in the count most of the time, and he commanded his breaking ball down. I thought he threw with confidence.
everybody excited fastball good hit knew
He hit that fastball about as good as you can hit it. When he hit it, I knew it was gone. I don't know if everybody else did, but I knew. It excited me.
add bat played swinging third
He has played very well defensively at third base. He's swinging the bat well. He can add some punch.
account gives goes good himself performance proud time
He gives a good account of himself every time he goes out there. I was proud of his performance today.
adjust game key pitcher whether
The key to any game offensively is whether you adjust to the pitcher. We didn't adjust to that pitcher at all. We didn't do much of anything offensively.
aaron chance demeanor gave goes great impressed pitcher win
I really think Aaron Shafer pitched well and gave us a chance to win the game. I'm very impressed with his demeanor and the way he goes about his business. I think he's an outstanding prospect, and he's going to be a great pitcher for us.
brown catch caught last matt performs plays surprises time
I have no idea how he caught that ball. You can't say enough about Matt Brown and how he plays the outfield. There's nothing about the way he performs that surprises me, but every time he makes a catch like that, it's better than the last one.
ballpark excited night quiet seem seemed
Not like it used to be. It didn't seem like we were excited -- this whole ballpark just seemed quiet all night to me.
breaking good throw
He's still not able to throw his breaking ball, but he did a real good job.
rally weekend
I don't know if we can rally this weekend or not. We need to do something.
apart clear fall golf happy mind motivation motivational point ready refreshed ride seen send tactic team tried
I don't know. I've never seen a team fall apart offensively like this team has. We've tried every motivation tactic with them. At this point and time, I'm ready to send them to putt-putt golf or ride a go-cart. They need to do something to clear their mind and get refreshed and at least be happy to come to the ballpark.
hitting special truly
He's truly a very remarkable, special athlete. He's an outstanding hitting prospect.
