along answer candidate creates health obviously opportunity options time
Is he a candidate to have an opportunity to make the club? I don't know the answer to that. We'll take it a day at a time and see how he progresses from a health standpoint. If he comes along quicker, that obviously creates more options for us.
breaking chance created cut fastball good looked opportunity ourselves took watching
We had something going on in the fifth, it looked like we had a chance to get back in the game, but they cut the inning off. We took some good at-bats off him, we created some opportunity for ourselves ... but from watching him, he's got a crisp fastball and his breaking ball also is very sharp.
base bunt created guys hit left perfect pitches situation
Two perfect pitches to bunt -- they are fouled off and we left our guys stranded. (Chicago) created a two-out situation and got a base hit that scored a run. It's huge.
ball complete created guy ninth novice opportunity player
He's going to get the ball in the ninth inning. We'll see how it goes. We've got a guy who is a complete novice in that environment. But what I see is a player that an opportunity has been created for him and he's seizing the opportunity.
both create moving opportunity sides
I don't need to say anything more. I think that both sides are moving on from something like that. You don't use things like that as an opportunity to create a rift between two clubs.

We were pitched to death. It's the best game that's been pitched against us all year.

What takes place between the pitcher's mound and behind the plate is vitally important to the success of a major-league team. I think Ryan is realizing that more every day.

We got pitched to death. He dominated the game.
good mind signed
I've never signed up for anything with the thought in mind that I wanted to be mediocre. I feel pretty good about it.
careful game hitting hurting intention people seen start
I've never seen Curt Schilling go out and start a game with the intention of hurting people. But if you start hitting people in the head... you need to be very careful of that.
extremely hill kids proud themselves wonderful
It was wonderful to see them. They represented themselves extremely well. Timmy Hill should be very proud about the way his kids competed.
baseball bicycle clothes dad fall game gave guys kept love
I started to fall in love with the game of baseball when my dad gave me my first set of baseball cards, ... I kept the ones I recognized. The guys I didn't were the ones I put in the spokes of my bicycle with clothes pins.
