again chance good happening
There's probably not a good chance of that happening again this year.
everybody gets knock looks lying minute second
Everybody would be lying if for one minute - one second - you didn't think, 'All right, it looks like we're going home,' ... But all of a sudden, (David) Eckstein gets a knock ...
last obviously pitching says seems sudden together
To me, it seems like the same lineup as last year. But they're obviously pitching a lot better. When you put together some pitching and all of a sudden get a little more confidence, I think it says a lot for a team.
ball curve fourth good great throwing tired today
I think I'm where I want to be, especially physically. I wasn't tired at all in the fourth inning. I didn't feel as good today as I did my first two starts, but I had a great curve ball today, throwing it for strikes.
difference knows team veteran younger
We have a veteran team, ... That's a difference for me. I've been on a younger team that doesn't always know what's going on. This is a team that always knows what they're doing, how to prepare.
arms extension full hurts move side tilt
I can get full extension in my arms and move it from side to side. It only hurts when I tilt it back and look up. I'll have to see how it feel tomorrow.
drive field finishing line means ready start worrying
I can field my position. If I start worrying about being ready for a line drive too soon, that means I'm not finishing my pitches, and I've got to be able to do that first.
good knows nobody obviously
Obviously he did a good job. But to say that it was him that did this, no... nobody knows that.
fifth gets great guy nobody
Nobody gets skipped here. Our fifth guy in Oakland had it tough. He didn't know when he was pitching. He didn't know how to go about things. It's great how we've had it going this year.
games guys love seven sure throw
Seven games into the season. Sure, it's not what you expect, but it's seven games into the season. I'm sure nobody's worried. I love our bullpen. I love the way those guys throw and I love the way they go about it. I think they're going to be just fine.
beat best good handle pitches quick throwing
When I'm throwing a good sinker, I get a lot of quick outs. If I get beat, I want to get beat on my best pitches and that's what happened. I can handle that.
bunch came diego division early finished game maybe messing runs san team teams
With this team we just got up 2-0 (against San Diego in the NL Division Series) and just finished it. No messing around, we came out and scored a bunch of runs early in the first game and got us a lead. Maybe it's just different teams and experience.
atmosphere baseball city great louis loved moving people team year
A lot of people thought I didn't like St. Louis. I loved it. Don't get me wrong. I loved Oakland. But the year I had in St. Louis - with the fans, the city and the baseball atmosphere - was so much fun. What could be better than that? It's a great team moving into a new stadium. I can't say enough about the situation.
pitchers
There's a lot of pitchers who've got it. That's an out pitch for them. It's a big pitch.
