baseman hitting home
That was bull, hitting our first baseman after he hit a home run.
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.
hit
I told him he's going to hit 40 homers, 38 of them when I'm pitching,
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.
enjoy hit home shot steal sure week
He can't even give me a week to enjoy my home run. He has to hit to a shot in the upper deck. He sure can steal the show, can't he?
careful hits home reap
He does that after Carlos hits a home run. I'll just say this: You've got to be a little more careful in those situations. You reap what you sow.
bad executive hitters pitches tough
I made some bad pitches and it was just one of those deals, I guess. That's what big-league hitters do when you don't executive pitches. They hit them hard. It's a tough lineup over there. It was just one of those things.
bunch changes fight guess hitting home idiot last point respecting season year
I'm about respecting the game. Even if it is a home run, I don't think it's the right thing to do. It's not like I wanted to fight the guy, but I wanted to make the point that you look like an idiot when you do that and it's an out. It was my fault. I should've let it go. He didn't do that last year when he was hitting a bunch of homers. I guess one season changes you.
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.
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.
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.
