baseball caught gone last ourselves pat running series three winning
Running away with it is the last thing we need to do. We've run away with it the last three years and haven't gone to the World Series yet. I think we get a little too caught up in winning the division. We always want to pat ourselves on the back ... for winning 13 in a row. Let's see how many World Series we can win in a row, or even get to.
almost guys intensity league playing winning
Giles said. ''We've got it now. With these young guys we have the intensity that we need. It's almost like we're 10 years old playing Little League again, but winning is more important now.

I like to have fun, and the only way to have fun is to win.

I'm sure he's enjoying this. Having him here is a lot of fun for me.

It's not a 'rah-rah' college atmosphere, but it's fun and it's exciting. We're here to win ball games. It's almost like we're 10 years old playing Little League again.
feeling fingers good
I'm in the lineup. Feeling good is another thing. Just keep your fingers crossed.
ready season spring though
I'm not worried. I never like a lot of at-bats during spring training, though I do usually have better results. I'll be ready when the season starts.
bad
It wasn't all that bad of a game.
great wish
It's great to be back. I wish I could take two infields.
definitely hard last stick time work
It's definitely surprising. But it's so early, we have time to rebound. I think the last thing we want to do is panic. We just need to stick with each other and play hard and we'll work it out.
happy hitting nice streak
It was nice to keep the hitting streak alive. But I would have been happy going 0-for-3 and getting a 4-1 win.
ball changed difference found game hit nice tonight
It was nice to hit the ball well. It's nice to have a four-hit game but I haven't changed anything. The only difference was that tonight the ball found some holes.
bringing finally home knowing matter took
It took a while, but she's finally got it now. I wouldn't be down here if she weren't out of the woods. It wasn't so much bringing her home as it was a matter of knowing she was going to come home.
