against athletes best key kid secrets shut step weapons
We don't have a lot of secrets left, so everybody's got to step up. I think we have enough weapons that they can't key on one kid to shut us down. It's pretty much my best athletes against your best athletes.
against bet errors mortgage
If you had told me that Alberto Gonzalez would make two errors in the first inning, I'd have bet my mortgage against it.
good needed pitches
Raab made some good pitches when he needed to.
aggressive anyone base fault saw
Bonifacio saw the base wasn't covered, but you can't be that aggressive in the first inning. But I'll never fault anyone for being aggressive.
five good jackson kept needed ready
I wanted five good innings. Kellen Raab was going to be ready if we needed him. But Jackson just kept going and going.

Running behind all those big guys, he can get lost in there. That's an advantage for him.
damage flat guys minimize pitching
Those guys can flat out hit. Fortunately our pitching was able to minimize the damage from the errors.
bunt hit
That was his first bunt hit of the year.
ball count exactly fast happy nice supposed
This was a nice one for us to get today. I'm really happy for Manuel. He battled and battled to get the count to 2-0. He then got a fast ball and was able to take it the other way, which is exactly what you're supposed to do in that situation.
balls chased command good needed strike
We let him off the hook. He didn't have good command of the strike zone, and we needed to be more disciplined. We chased a lot of balls out of the strike zone.
baseball
I told him no way. I'm a baseball guy.
good seen
We've seen them a lot, we know what they have. And they have good pitching. It'll be a battle.
alive attitude battling stay
They did what they had to do to stay alive in this series, but you know the attitude of our kids. They'll be out there battling (tonight).
cleveland
This is part of development, too. It's that way in Cleveland and New York. If you're going to play in the big leagues, you'd better get used to it.
