care contract everybody reaching taken time wants win
I'm here to play baseball. The contract stuff, that's something that may have and could have been taken care of a long time ago. But I'm out to win right now. Everybody wants to know about my contract status. All I want to know about is reaching the playoffs. That's about it.
We'll be all right, it just (stinks) not scoring, especially with this offense. We could be 4-0, we feel like we should be.
momentum slow win
We need to win tomorrow. We have to slow down the momentum they have and give us a chance.
luck needed white win
We had enough to win this year. We needed the White Sox to not hit and we needed some luck ... and we didn't get it.
close push runs win
We need to know how to win close games, and this was close most of the way. We need to know how to push runs across.
anymore caught countries expect few field gloves great onto passed players throw
We can't just throw our gloves out onto the field anymore and expect to win. The world has caught up. A few countries may have passed us. There are great players from all over the planet.
great guy high hit
That was great for me to see because I was the guy who was up before him, and when he hit it I jumped pretty high out of the dugout.
seeing
That was good, just seeing Keith out there, doing his thing. He's only going to get better.
hitting last week
We've done this without Manny hitting the last week to 10 days. It's going to be pretty interesting when he does.
guy knows picked takes teams win
He's a guy a lot of teams would take No.1. He knows what it takes to win games. ... He picked up the whole team with one swing. That was awesome.
dictates hitting scoring season
We had opportunities; we just couldn't capitalize. That's the most aggravating thing about this game. When you're not hitting and scoring runs, it dictates how well your season goes.
africa beat game guys maybe runs scenarios score shown south
We were shown all the scenarios after the game and we were kind of in awe. A lot of guys thought it was runs scored, so we thought maybe we'd have to go out and try and beat South Africa by a lot of runs. But it's runs allowed, and the South Africa score does not count. That's strange, too.
frustrated plenty season yeah
Yeah, we're frustrated we're 1-4, yeah we're frustrated we just lost, but there's plenty of season left.
bad booing good uniform
You know they're booing a uniform now. They don't boo bad players. They boo good players.
