excited great guys hopefully pride ready
I've been excited the whole time. It's something we have to take great pride in, and hopefully the guys will show up and be ready to play. I know I am.
guys
First of all, what do you guys think about this? Obviously, keep on snapping away.
good guy nice
Schilling is one game, ... It would be nice to get him back, and I think he will be, but we also have some other good guys. If we want our ace, Schilling is going to have to be the guy who has to be that.
approaches ballplayer baseball billy bit favorite field game guy son success telling time watches
Billy Mueller's my favorite ballplayer. I keep telling my son every time he watches the game to watch this guy. He's a guy who earns every bit of his success out on the baseball field the way he approaches the game, the way he plays, switch-hitting. That's the kind of ballplayer I want my son to be.

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.
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.
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.
fooling game guys hurt playing whether
So many times, you see guys getting hurt whether they're just fooling around or not playing very hard. For me, I have to keep up with the routine, play like every game may be my last.
busted foolproof games guys half miss missing mistakes positive quality season somehow step sure
Missing 75 games or whatever, that's half a season your team, if you're a quality player, your team's going to miss you. I think it's a positive step for the union. Unfortunately, you can't make everyone happy. Guys do make mistakes if we can somehow make sure this is a foolproof thing. We want to make sure guys know what they're being busted for.
baseball gone great guys teams
I have a lot of friends there and we had some great moments. But a lot of the guys are gone and that's how baseball is. The teams make their choices.
felt good guys hitters pick three
We had three pretty good hitters up, ... I felt after those guys made the two outs I was going to pick them up.
guys struck
We thought he had the first two guys struck out. Unfortunately, things didn't go our way.
amazing depending guys joe pitchers teams whoever
It's pretty amazing. Joe is going to be able to flip-flop guys around, like three-four-five-six, depending on whoever is going great. It's just an amazing lineup. I know the other teams always look over and go, 'Wow. Another guy! Another guy here, another guy there.' Pitchers don't get much of a break.
