battle ready worked
It was unfortunate the way it worked out but you've got to get ready to battle again.
clutch hits seen teams three win
I've been on teams for three years and I haven't seen as many clutch hits as he's had this year. If that's not enough to win the MVP, I don't know what is.
again time
Every time he's been in there he's pitched his butt off and he did it once again today.
definitely expected
Yeah, it's definitely not as loud. But I expected that.
health rotation starting
I think our starting rotation has a lot of potential. It just comes down to health.
criticize good people
I think people criticize his hitting, but this guy's as good as you're going to get at shortstop.
certain half matter matters next point second somebody wins
It doesn't matter now how many wins somebody had in the second half or how somebody was at a certain point in the season, ... All that matters now is your next start.
affected johnny played stuff
Johnny has a lot of stuff going on the side, but it never affected the way he played on the field.
good pitching problem
Having a lot of pitching is usually a good problem to have because you're usually going to need it at some point.
seize underdog worried
I don't think we're worried about who's the underdog or the favorite, we just get to the postseason and now you have the opportunity, ... Hopefully, we can seize it.
coach expect pitching problem
I don't expect it to be a problem or anything that's an issue. I think (Nipper) kind of comes out of Wally's mold, in a way. To me, a pitching coach is more of a psychologist than a pitching coach.
baseball healed health healthy help worry
More important is him and his health and his family, not baseball. Let's get him healthy and get him healed up, then we'll worry about when he's going to come help us pitch.
balls control execute left maybe needed pitches plate strike supposed zone
Maybe it was control in the strike zone today, ... I left a lot of balls over the plate and they did what you are supposed to do with balls over the plate. I didn't execute the pitches the way I needed to, and they didn't let me off the hook.
deserve five
When you come out after five innings, you kind of feel like you don't deserve it (the win) sometimes,
