blocking came draw passionate thick thin
Where I came from, they were passionate about baseball. We probably didn't draw as many (fans), but through thick and thin it was like 'Let's go. We can do it. We can do it. We know you can do it.' This is something I have to get used to and I'm blocking it out as much as I can. It is what it is.
hard matt talked
Yes, I was surprised. Stunned. I never thought something like this would come up with Matt. I don't know all the details, but he's a hard worker. Everything he's gotten, he's earned. I actually talked to Matt today, but we didn't talk about this. I didn't say anything about it.
beat blow dealt guys stop teams trying
Other teams aren't going to stop trying to beat us because these guys aren't playing. We got to try to soften some of the blow we have been dealt right now.
kidding
I thought he was kidding when he told me he was going to do it. It was surprising.
bounce hang team
That's the team I remember. You bounce back like that and don't hang your head.
boo stated
I wasn't malicious. I just stated my opinion. So, if they boo even more, then that's what they do. It's not a big deal. I just made a statement.
dumb runs scoring stuck
We haven't been scoring a lot of runs lately. I was stuck in no-man's land. You look back on it, and it's a dumb decision, but I play hard. I play aggressive.
baseball learn whatever
You learn that that's just kind of the way it is. That's part of baseball. It's a part of any sport, actually. You just have to go out and play and whatever happens, happens.
ball couple dirt miss
Yeah, the whole at-bat I wanted him to get the ball up. He got a couple down in the dirt and I went after them. Then he got one up and I didn't miss it.
concerned
You know what, I don't even concentrate on it. We won. That's all I'm concerned about.
matter
It's not about me, it's about the team. As long as we are winning, it doesn't matter what I do.
error margin nice pitchers work
It was nice for our pitchers to be able to breathe, and give them more margin of error to work with.
clean concern house loss means problems team
I've got my own problems going. I can't even concern myself with the loss of D-Lee and what it means to the team and what it means to me. I've got to clean my own house first.
behind pitcher tough win
It's tough any day you lose, especially now. We pretty much have to win out. Our pitcher pitched well enough for us to win, but we didn't play well enough behind him. That's the story.
