careless couple errors giving guys help pitching routine throwing tried
There have been a couple of errors where guys have tried to do too much. We've had some errors that are just careless throwing errors. We can not make careless errors. You're going to have enough errors without just giving away bases. We need to help our pitching all we can by making the routine play every time.
later ready sounds
It sounds like, hopefully, later in the week, he'll be ready to go, ... He's day to day. We'll just have to see how he is every day.
couple everybody field gone hard last seen walk wants worked
Everybody around here who's seen how hard he worked and how much he wants to play and what he's gone through the last couple of years, you don't want to see him walk off the field like we did.
accurate gone management poor second unless
It was poor management on my part. I should've gone out after the second one and said, 'Don't try it unless you can make a strong, accurate throw.' I should've told him before the game.
good
Yes, it was (a good run). In the eighth, I thought we were going to win.
deserve good innings win wrong
We did so many things wrong that we didn't deserve to win that game. I don't even know how we were in it. But you're going to have innings like that. They've got some good hitters.
ballgame confidence five gave guys hits swing winning
I think winning that ballgame with only five hits gave the guys confidence to go out and swing the bats.
crucial nobody talks
LaRue's play is one that nobody talks about. That was the big play in a crucial part of the game.
against chance facing hitter three
Holbert is a little better hitter than Olmedo against left-handers, ... And this was a chance to give Holbert a start. We're facing three left-handers in a row, so probably we'll play both.
ballpark drive ended trying
He was just trying to drive it to the big part of the ballpark and get one, and he ended up getting all three.
close percent
He'll be able to pinch-run and play the outfield. I don't think he's close to being 100 percent with the bat.
best everybody fun game healthy players season thankful watch
He is one of the best ever to play the game, he is still one of the better players in the game today, one of the elite. It is so much fun to watch him and I'm just thankful he is healthy and having a season where he can let everybody see that he can still do it.
count early good guys looked missing pitches sure thinking
He looked like he had pretty good movement. I don't know if they were sliders or cutters away from right-handed hitters. I'm sure when we're making outs early in the count like that, our guys are thinking they're getting good pitches to hit, and they were just missing them.
field nobody sure thankful threw
I just wanted to make sure the field was playable and I'm just thankful everyone got threw it with nobody getting hurt,
