base games larry run score until
I had no idea until Larry Andersen told me the other day. I don't even know when it started. I do know the first 10-12 games I only was getting one hit, but it was in big situations. I try to get on base and score a run at least once a game. If I do that, I feel like I've done my job.
base fashion matters nice score
That's what matters most. You have to get on base and score runs, and it's nice to be doing it in the fashion I'm doing it in. The W's matter.

runs score win
If I do what I can do to score runs and win the game, ... I'm satisfied.
base fashion gotta nice score
I can't tell you (why now), but they're fun. You gotta get on base and score runs, and it's nice to be doing it in the fashion I'm doing it in. The W's matter.
either fact final five guess happen knew six waiting
I knew that it was the final at-bat, I guess you could say. It was either going to happen or it wasn't. I've been waiting five or six months, there was really no rush. I was all right with that and the fact that if that would happen, I would have started a new one.
confidence
I like his honesty. I know he's out there working and I have confidence in him.
bad came good
I just wasn't getting good swings. They came at me and I had bad results.
definitely game last trying ways win
It's something that is new around here, definitely in the last year. We were still trying to find ways to win and, if not win, how to make the game closer.
catch decision free
I made a decision that if I was going to make an out, they were going to have to catch it. No more free outs.
care hand
If my hand wasn't a little tired, I wouldn't care how I was hitting, I'd be in there.
belief number playing prior ring satisfied second together
It's just a belief we have. We've been playing together a number of years now and we don't want to be satisfied with second place. We want a ring now. And that's different from prior years.
came enjoy kick remember smiles speak special time
It's always special to see the smiles on the kids' faces, especially at this age. I remember one time when Rickey Henderson came to speak to us. I got a real kick out of it. I really enjoy doing these things.
It'll be broken. Definitely, it can be done. Nothing is forever.
