criticize good people
I think people criticize his hitting, but this guy's as good as you're going to get at shortstop.
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.
attacking felt good nice results team
I felt good. I was attacking the hitter. It's nice to have good results and keep this team in the game.
again behind came defensive good great nixon people plays pole time today underrated understand
I had some great defensive plays behind me. I've said it time and time again, Trot Nixon is about as underrated an outfielder defensively as you can get. People don't understand how good he is, especially at Wrigley with the Pesky Pole and everything else. Once again he came up with a great play today that will probably get overlooked.
against ball best good hitter leave plate supposed
He's an All-Star - probably the best hitter in their lineup. He's a good hitter, and you can't leave a ball up over the plate against him. He did what you're supposed to do with that pitch.
bullpen good
How good has the bullpen been all year? They've been awesome.
good guy helped job people pole seen struggle tremendous underrated weird
The guy is very underrated defensively. In Boston, he does such a good job with the Pesky Pole and that weird right field, and you've seen people struggle out there. Today, he made another tremendous play and helped us out.
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.
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.
