additional catch continues creep followed four further game runs side three time tough trying
Each and every time we creep back into the game, it's followed up by additional runs by the other side of the field. And when you're trying to play catch up, and it continues to go further and further away from you, you're trying to get back in the game three or four times a game that's tough to do.
additional creep followed four game runs side three time tough trying
Each time we creep back into the game, it's followed up by additional runs from the other side of the field. When you're trying to get back into a game three or four times a day, that's tough to do.
runs three
We got the three runs in the third, but we did nothing else. That's all we did.
game offensive runs three
We got the three runs in that inning and we didn't do anything else. That's our offensive game tonight.
certainly five hope nights plenty runs
I would certainly hope so. At the major-league level, there has to be a lot of nights where five runs are plenty to win.
base couple games hit home ourselves position runs score sustain tried via
Through the first two games of this series, all of our runs have come via the home run ball. We were not able to, when we tried to get something going, sustain it offensively to put ourselves in a position where a base hit or a gapper could score a couple of runs for us.
coming days last runs score spring three won
Coming out of Spring Training, I thought we'd score some runs. We've scored 20 runs in the last three days and haven't won a game.
expect five four giving innings runs starter
Giving up four or five runs through five innings with your starter ... that's a lot of runs to give up and expect to win.
aware guy hit home runs seen type
He may not have seen live pitching, but he's the type of guy who wouldn't take long to resurrect his hand-eye coordination. I don't think he hit 700-and-something home runs by accident. I think you would have to be aware of him.
against best game
We were pitched to death. It's the best game that's been pitched against us all year.
behind mound plate realizing ryan success takes vitally
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.
dominated
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.
