audience dropped energy enjoy kids mix older people
The skew of the audience has probably dropped 10 years, ... Older people don't have the spontaneity and the energy. You mix in 15-percent young kids and the older people enjoy the show more.
anyone chance dreamed far fortunate guy leagues liking major minor people ways
My career's pretty much a major fluke. I probably wasn't the guy that was expected, or should have been in the big leagues or even the minor leagues when I first started. I was very fortunate in a lot of ways having people take a liking or just a chance on me. I've benefited by far more than anyone could have ever dreamed of.
people
When I think of the things I have, it makes me a little uneasy. I don't want people to think I've lost touch with reality.
thinking people done
You know, I think the greatest gift in the world is a good employee, you know, or people who can do your work for you and do it well the way you'd like to have it done. And I've always been able to surround myself with really good people.
nice laughing people
People will clap to be nice. They will not laugh to be nice.
people want messages
If you want people to know what your message is, just sing it.
love oh shadows sun town wall
The shadows on the wall tell me the sun is going down, Oh Ruby, don't take your love to town
extra forward opening pitch possibly privilege year
Every year that I'm here it's an honor. To possibly pitch opening day, without a doubt, is an extra privilege and it's something I look forward to.
decent inside
You always want to second-guess yourself to a point. I think it was a decent pitch. I would like to have it a little more inside and not give up a hit.
balls beat good gotten ground knew liked loved stuff wanting
I wasn't very good in getting the ground balls I would have liked to have gotten today. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff going on. I would have loved to have done better without a doubt, Just like they wanted to beat me, they knew I was wanting to beat them, too.
ball doubt easy forget great ground hit shift
I thought it was an easy ground ball because I forget we had that big shift on. That's without a doubt the softest he's ever going to hit a ground ball off me, but Carlos made a great play.
help
I'm here to help them in any way. They can't do anything that I haven't done on the mound.
leave
He's a dead-pull hitter. Leave it to me to get him to go the other way with what I throw.
appreciate behind defense great played
Carlos was outstanding. They played great behind me, and I appreciate that probably more than any other pitcher, because I need my defense more than most.
