couple double fought hit impressive needed runners
What was impressive was that we fought back. Even a couple of times we had runners at first or second, we hit into a couple of double plays, we were still able to come back and do what we needed to do and that's promising.

atlanta ball beach believe coming locked looked pitch
It was like everything in Atlanta was brighter; the ball just looked so big I couldn't believe it. I just got locked in. Every pitch looked like a beach ball coming in there.

None of it's hit me, ... After the season I'll look back at it but right now I'm taking it day by day.

No matter what happens, I'm just happy to be selected to this roster. But I'd love to play and have 'USA' across my chest.

It was a great thing in high school, ... That's another part of my life.

It's fun because a lot of young guys have come up in this division. We're all trying to do the same thing, and that's win a title.

It's easy for all the rookies. We come out here and Bobby lets us play. He never puts any pressure on us.

(I) took one the opposite way, finally, ... It felt good. I felt like I've been able to see the ball better. If you do that, you're going to be able to hit.
beach came guess hopefully last ok problems scary time
It was scary at first, but everything came out OK. I thought everything was OK from the Myrtle Beach injury, but I guess not. Hopefully that's the last time I'll have any problems with it.
awesome
It was awesome to be able to be a part of this.
ball bringing great happening hit love matter nice people purity seemed time
It seemed like 30 (home runs) didn't even matter for years. So I think what's happening is great for the game. We are bringing the purity back. I know people love to see the ball hit 600 feet, but at the same time it's always nice to see a 2-1 game. That's real baseball.
