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.
blocking opinion voice whatever
They have the right to voice whatever opinion they want to. It's not going to make me play better, it's not going to make me play any worse. I got to get used to it and I'm blocking it out as much as I can. It is what it is.
ability couple enjoying few fun game last minor proven talked
We talked about it, we made a few minor changes. I've proven I can do it, I have the ability. The last couple years it hasn't happened. I don't think I'm on the downside, I don't think I'm sliding. I can still play the game. It's just relaxing, having fun again, enjoying the game again.
heart lost
We lost a lot of heart -- those two guys.
hit home row runs seen three voice
I've seen friends go through it. Sammy Sosa hit 60 home runs three years in a row and he went into a little slump. They have a right to voice their opinion. It's not going to make me play any better, it's not going to make me play any worse.
enjoyed life puck size
Puck enjoyed life and enjoyed the size he was. That's who he was.
blame
This one's tough. I take a lot of blame.
blame
This one's tough, and I take a lot of blame. I feel like I should have come through in those situations.
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.
kidding
I thought he was kidding when he told me he was going to do it. It was surprising.
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.
reason
He's a big part of the reason I play this game.
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.
