normal run special
We have some special 40-year-olds here. We don't have the normal 40-year-olds that can't run around.
answered deserve division hang stayed
We hang in there. It hasn't always been fun. It hasn't always been pretty. But we've answered every challenge. We stayed on top. We deserve to be division champions.
air almost asked barry whether
It was up in the air whether Barry would do this. We asked him this morning. It was almost embarrassing to have him do it.
glue holds team
He's the glue that holds this team together.
cog contract glue parts spare
He's the glue of our team. I've said that all along. Spare parts are very important, but he's the one cog we can't really miss. He'll make any contract look reasonable.
coming good guys quiet total wants
He's a quiet guy. He wants to take it all in. A lot of these guys coming up are spoon-fed how good they are even before they have success, and he's the total opposite.

As a visiting player, that's all we talked about. We're a better team when he's out there.
playing saw special wrong
That's how special he is. I don't know if you saw my ball, but it would have been out at Williamsport. I squared it up. I'm just playing on the wrong field.
great kid pressure special
It's very special to see a kid like Cain. There's going to be pressure on him to perform, and I think he's up for it. He's got great poise.
accept almost concerned hard hitting
It's almost like hitting for me. It's hard for me to accept in a sense. I want to make the plays. But it's not something to be concerned about. I've just got to do more work, like everything else.
break funny hear hit home people run
It was beautiful. We all wanted him to do it, hit the home run and break the ice. We all know he has the ability. It's pretty funny to hear people say he doesn't have it anymore.
fans few indicative select
That's pretty stupid. But it's just a select few fans who would do something like that. I don't think it's indicative of everyone.
