hits platoon
The platoon is still on, he just hits Vazquez good.
balls benefit guys hard hit
We hit some balls hard right at guys today. That's baseball, we also benefit from that, too.
ahead good hitters pitchers
The good pitchers were ahead of the hitters today.
clutch good hitting time
We had some good at-bats and some clutch hitting there in the ninth. That's the first time we ever did anything with Baez this year.
good hit player power run
I think he's going to hit for some power and be a run producer. He's got a good swing. ... He should be a good big-league player before it's all said and done.
good hit home runs start swinging
It didn't start out good, that's for sure. We've been swinging good and we like our offence. When you can hit some home runs it makes a difference.
base doubles hits might
It got away and it got away quick. If those (homers) are base hits or even doubles it might be a different story.
guy hitting home run tough
Look, if the guy is going to keep hitting a home run a day it would be tough to keep him out of there.
bit breaks face gets guys hitters mound seeing swinging
It breaks it up a little bit -- gets them out there to face some competition. It gets the guys on the mound seeing hitters that are swinging and working on making some pitches. It revs things up a little bit.
ahead ball bring found game good groove hit kept missing pitch pitches throwing
He's got to pitch ahead to be effective. He was throwing some pitches and he wasn't missing by much if he was missing. When he had to bring it over the plate, they hit him. Then after that, he kind of found his groove and pitched a good ball game and kept us in it from there on.
figures good guy hit throws watch
When he throws strikes, he's as good as anybody. When he figures it out, watch out. He was on. Nobody's going to hit that guy today.
hits night reed three
He (Rios) wasn't benched (yesterday), he wasn't going to play (yesterday), ... Reed (Johnson) got three hits the night before and that's why he's in right.
guy hit nobody
He was on. Nobody was going to hit that guy tonight.
changed hitting path spread stance strong
He changed his stance a little bit. He's a little more spread out, a little more crouched -- in a strong hitting position. I see a shorter path to the ball.
