biggest hitting instead key kinda nice playing relax runs three
We had pitching, hitting and defense. It was nice to get all three working together. The biggest key was getting the three runs early. That let us kinda relax a little bit, instead of playing from behind.
losing middle nice olympics season
He said it makes up for losing in the Olympics. He said he wanted to say congratulations and to tell the guys, ?Way to go.' It was nice of him to take that time, in the middle of the season and right after Olympics -- he had a lot going on. It was a nice gesture.
forward giving looking nice
It would be a nice little accomplishment. I'm looking forward to the opportunity, but it's not one of those things you can force. It's not like they are just giving it to you.
nature neat nice people players quick step sudden team tournament win
The neat thing about this tournament is the nature of it, and how quick it is. A nice win here, you step it up in one game, and all of a sudden people take note, not just of the team but the players on it.
feeling hard hope nice notice realized reciprocal
I realized something like this could happen, so you go out there, play hard and hope someone notices. It's nice to get that reciprocal feeling that they notice what you're doing.
finally fun game nice
It was nice to finally have a game in which we could have some fun and relax. We haven't had a game like this all season.
baseball love speaks volumes
This whole weekend, all these people--it just speaks volumes about our fans. They still love baseball here.
forward games innings looking nine playing spring
You go from spring training, where you're (in the lineup) here and there and you can't really simulate playing nine innings continually, to having to play 17 games in a row. I think everyone is looking forward to this day off.
blast challenged early followed great paul runs start
We've been challenged many times this season, so for us to get those runs early and Paul having an unbelievable start was big for us, ... It was a bleeder and a blast followed by some great pitching.
definitely finally gets ready talking
We've been talking about it for a while. Now we're just ready to get out there and get going. You have that anticipation, it finally gets here and you definitely get excited.
finish goal left soon weeks
I'd like to get something done as soon as possible, but we have two weeks left in the season. My goal now is just to finish strong.
excited forward good heard looking manager offense pirates run spring
No offense to Lloyd (former Pirates manager Lloyd McClendon) and his staff, but I'm looking forward to going to spring training. And there's going to be a different look, a different feel, a different way things are run and I've heard nothing but good things. So I'm just excited about the way we're going to go about things.
coming face middle reason season start talent talking turning
On paper, no question, we're a better team. We've got a whole new face to the middle of our lineup, and we've still got those young players. That's reason for optimism. At the same time, we've got to start turning the young talent into wins. You can't keep coming into every new season talking about young guys.
call help maybe motivate shaking
Maybe this is a wake-up call for us, too, to say 'Hey, we're shaking things up,' and, hopefully, it can help motivate us.
