easy good guess help second stronger
Second guess all you want. I think that's easy to do in that situation, but I think it's a little unfair, too. I feel like I can help the team, I really do. I feel like I'm going to give a good at-bat. I'm a lot stronger now.
felt good knees level pain tough
I felt all right. (Today) will be a good (gauge) of how I feel. With the adrenaline, it's tough to tell what your pain level is, but it wasn't too bad. Physically, I didn't go to my knees in pain, so it's all good so far.
best good guys
I feel good enough to where I could do something. But this is not about me. It's about the other 24 guys and what's best for the team.
bad good heck spent time
It's very special, ... We've spent a long time together. It's really like a marriage. We've had good times. We've had bad times. But it's been a heck of an association.
good kid roger save sign sneak today
That kid should save that bat. And one of these days, he should sneak in and have Roger sign it. ... Uh, today wouldn't be a good day -- but someday.
good partly problems rock
It's not good for us that he's had hamstring problems for us in the past. We need Rock (Clemens) to pitch. We are here partly because of him.
base bat came decided good help hit home run runners scoring stronger
When I came back, we decided to give it a try and see how I would do. I told them: I can give you a good at bat and I think I can help the team. I can hit a home run now. I can get a base hit to right field. I'm just a lot stronger -- and I've been in these situations, runners in scoring position.
balls bed examined extent good heart heck hospital saw seeing swings threw took videotape
I threw 20 balls and took about 15 swings on videotape and went and saw Dr. Andrews, who was a heck of a trouper for seeing me in his hospital bed after a heart attack. We had a good conversation. He examined me, and that's about the extent of it right now.
baseball good letting nolan remembered ryan
He did a lot of good things for baseball in this city, and it's really unfortunate that the one thing he's remembered for is letting Nolan Ryan leave,
good last night
He didn?t look real good last night. Of course, there were probably a lot of things going through his mind.
enjoyed good player relationship talk teams treated
I had a really good relationship with him. I think if you talk to just about every player who was on those teams when he was the owner, he treated them in a first-class manner. I really enjoyed the man.
good guy million pay
But you look at it the other way, he was the first guy to pay a guy a million dollars, and that was Nolan. He did a lot of good for this city, for baseball.
ball couple decisions fast felt good guy hard high job last swung throws
The last one cut. I felt all right the whole at-bat, the whole night, but I swung at a couple of high fastballs. I didn't do a good job of getting the ball down. He's a guy who just comes in and throws hard stuff. With a guy like that, you've got to get it going, because decisions have to be made fast or it's sayonara.
