easily either game guys happy however tie
Either one of those guys can easily tie the game or put them ahead. You're happy with however you get them out.
against bad believed execute guy luck needed pitches pitching six
I've always believed you make your own luck. I wouldn't say I had bad luck today. I just didn't execute pitches when I needed to. Pitching against a guy (Zambrano) like that, you can't give up six runs.
apart coming good guys hope start swallow team tear tough
That's the way we feel. We'll see how things play out. I hope they don't tear this team apart and we have to start all over. I know we have some good young guys coming up, but it would be tough for a lot of us to swallow if we have to start over.
ball guy hit respecting type whenever
I wanted to make a point. You look like a jackass whenever you hit the ball like that and you're pimping it, and you're out. I'm kind of about respecting the game, and I'm not the type of guy to not say anything.
besides guys pitchers scoring teams three top
It's about scoring runs. Pitching, your top three pitchers are going to be out there but besides that, they are going to be yanking guys pretty quick. All the teams will do this, Houston, Philly.
batting guys spots starting
We had some guys who had been starting and batting in different spots in the order,
double guy hits instead mean
That's huge. I mean this guy hits a double there, then we are down 4-0 instead of 1-0.
against far few five guy pitching six
Pitching against a guy like (Zambrano), you can't give up five or six runs. You just can't do it. He's going to have a day every once in a while where he does, but they're going to be few and far between.
ball fly gets guy pressure throwing time
Any time you put pressure on the defense, that's good. You get a throwing error, the guy can end up with a triple, and then a fly ball gets him home.
guy balls wanted
I've definitely always wanted to be the guy they tell, 'Here's the ball. Go do it.'
coming opening
Coming from Florida, opening day is sometimes the only day you have like that.
correct deal definitely hard home learn whatever
There's got to be some kind of deal you learn from this. I'm definitely going to go home and think hard about it and try to correct whatever it was.
excuse
There's no excuse for tonight. It was brutal, brutal, brutal.
baseman hitting home
That was bull, hitting our first baseman after he hit a home run.
