against barry faced figure finishing good looking reason step strong success
I've faced Barry a lot and he's had a lot of success against us. There's no reason to figure it out; just step back and keep looking for good pitches. Finishing strong showed why he's one of the best.
against bucks damage delegation looks state themselves trying worst
They inoculated themselves against the worst part of it. Legislators around the state are huffing and puffing, trying to keep up with their constituencies and trying to do damage control. The Bucks delegation looks pretty smart.
against beirut bring changed directed mainly mood people point slap start winds
The mood in Beirut is that this is just a first step, and one that is mainly directed against the Syrians. You bring in people like this for a reason. The point I think is to give them a big slap and say the winds have changed and you had better start talking.

The players love it because you can measure yourself against other top prospects,
against aggressive both cuts fastball good job kept plate sides tough worked
He worked both sides of the plate and spotted his fastball well. We had some aggressive cuts against him, but he did a good job and kept us off balance. He is always tough and is very competitive.
against anybody best expect good hit letting obviously running teams third unbalanced
With the unbalanced schedule, over a third of our at-bats are against these teams so it's important for him to go out and get a feel for these guys. Obviously we don't expect anybody to hit .450, but the best thing you can do is keep running him out there and letting him have good at-bats.

I'm just trying to have a very simple approach in that situation,
approach consistent plan
It's something I can look back on and be proud. I never try to go up and do too much. I try to have a consistent approach and a consistent plan of attack.

It was her inner beauty that first attracted me. She is just a warm, caring person who has so much to give.
both composed fairly match missed team
It was a fairly challenging match for both teams. We missed a lot of chances, but the team is young and were not composed so they lost.

There was an initial run up of several dollars per barrel in crude last week. It's given up nearly all those gains.

I want to take some deep breaths, get a pitch I can handle, put the barrel of the bat on it and hopefully find a hole.
