anybody eventually pitchers room runs score team walks work
That's the way this team works. We score a lot of runs in one inning because we work pitchers and work walks and eventually there is no room to put anybody else.
bad break drive fell hard hitter injury kept knee last paid playing reason runs worked
I think I can be a .300 hitter and drive in 100 runs again, definitely. When I had a knee injury (in 2003) I kept playing but I fell into a lot of bad habits. I've worked with Donnie to break those, and I think that hard work paid off last summer. I see no reason why I can't do the things I did before.
definitely hard hard-work work
It's unbelievable. I'm speechless. I'm definitely honored. It's been a lot of hard work and a long road.
grinding hard work
It's been a lot of hard work and a lot of grinding it out.
continue hard hard-work last nice start training work
When I got home, I wasn't sick, so I was able to continue all of the hard work I did last year. It was nice to be able to get back on that routine, start lifting, training and hitting, keep working on those things.

That's what makes him The Godfather. It always seems to work out.

This is the best I've felt the last couple of years. It was nice to come back and be able to work out right from the get-go after the way I finished the year last year.
best far felt good hard last main putting swing work yankee
This is the best I've felt in a while putting on a Yankee uniform. My swing has been really good so far this year. ... The main thing was just a lot of hard work that Donnie (Mattingly) and I put in last year.
head hit knew last since spring strung training work year
I was all over the place then. I had been hit (by a pitch) in the head and had been doing so much work since spring training to try and make up for last year that I was just strung out. But I knew it would change.
care field good playing speed talked train trying whatever workouts
When they first got down there they were trying to speed him along. I talked to him and he said they had some good workouts . . . I don't care how much you train or whatever you do, you can't simulate being on the field and playing baseball.
enjoying guy minute single tough
We just wanted to get in. It's been such a long, tough year. I know everyone in here is enjoying every single minute of this. Especially for a guy like me, and where I started. It's unbelievable.
ability bit changed last lift
We changed it up a little bit (from last year) because my ability to lift was already there. I had that base. We started squatting right away, lunging.
doubt games good offense win
We're going to win some games with our offense, no doubt about it. Our offense is too good not to win.
helped shot
The shot has helped me a lot, ... I had tendinitis.
