couple days mild treatment understanding
My understanding is it's a mild strain, and I'll get a couple days off. I'll get treatment and see how everything goes.
hearing help kinds stuff team
No, I don't think so. Like I said before, I'm going to go out and play and play hard. Right now it's a little tough. I'm not getting very many hits. I'm hearing all kinds of stuff in the outfield. But, hey, I'm here to help this team win.
battles exciting fighting solved
While it's exciting to be a present-day Thurgood Marshall, it is also disappointing that we are still fighting the same battles that should've been solved years ago.
call change decides pull until
You can't do anything about it until he decides to change. Hopefully, he'll pull through this, and it'll be like a call for him to change some things in his life.
best came enjoyed game guy last meet minute people played sorry speeches tough
It's tough to meet a guy better than him. He was always happy-go-lucky, even when he came down with glaucoma. That was one of the best speeches I've ever heard. He told people don't feel sorry for him. He enjoyed the game, he enjoyed every minute of it. That's why he played every game as if it was his last because you never know when that day is going to come. That's the way he played.
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.
almost angry attention loud pay
I try not to pay attention when things are bad. It's so loud and it's so angry right now, it's almost funny.
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.
develop relationship
I want to develop a relationship with my teammates.
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.
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.
came carried eddie hawk heart
It hurt. A lot. It's tough. Especially because that's what got us here. We all came up together. A lot of heart went out of the bullpen. Eddie and Hawk carried a lot of weight.
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.
