anytime compliments dan few good phony rarely talks ultimate walks wilson worse
When I say Dan Wilson is one of the good guys, for me, that's the ultimate compliment. Very few of us, in all walks of life, rarely say and do the same thing. There's nothing phony about Dan Wilson. He talks the talk and walks the walk. Anytime someone like that leaves, we're all worse off for it.
albert charge coach lack level stayed sure
We had a coach who was with Albert at every level Albert went. He was Albert's babysitter, for lack of a better word. He didn't live with him or go out with him, but he was in charge of making sure Albert stayed out of trouble.
four nine pitch sad
We pitched well for four innings. The sad thing is you have to pitch well for nine innings.
four innings nine pitch sad
We pitched well for four innings and we didn't pitch well for five. The sad thing is you need to pitch well for nine innings.
score win
We pitched well enough to win tonight. We just didn't score any runs.
hopefully liked lose saw spring training
We liked what we saw of him in spring training and hopefully we don't lose him. But he wasn't getting the at-bats here and there wasn't the (likelihood) for him to get at-bats.
drive hits momentum runs
Two-out hits to drive in runs are huge. They are momentum killers to the other side.
good kept ready sending three week
Two or three of them we could have kept for another week, but to get one inning in a week is not good for them or us. Sending them down makes sense, let them get ready for the season.
early gave good quickly settled
The good ones you have to get as early as you can. He settled down more quickly than we hoped. Washburn settled down, too, but not as quickly. That was the game: Santana settled down and gave up one run, and Jarrod settled down and gave up four.
numbers tough year
For a lot of players, Adrian's numbers would be good. But it's been a tough year for him.
excuse longer ourselves playing point record telling time tired
It's the same old record and I'm getting tired of playing it. It's still early. We've got to keep telling ourselves that. But there comes to a point in time where that excuse no longer works.
badly came feeling good indication miss shut threw typical
It's not very typical of him to miss as badly as he missed. That was an indication that he was feeling it tonight. But he shut them down pretty good and came back and threw well.
anybody feeling field fine kept saying seen taken time
It's the first time I've ever seen anybody play the field with a shinguard on. He kept saying it was fine and that he was feeling better. If he'd have said it was the same or getting worse, I'd have taken him out of the game.
ball dave kept nice pitch threw throwing
Dave threw the ball well and kept it down. That's the way to pitch best, throwing the ball nice and easy.
