One person, ... He just said, 'Good job. Keep it up.'
felt good last swing
I felt good last year. I know my swing well enough that when things go south, I can make the adjustments.
guys night ready
With all the things I've been able to do up here so far, to be able to do that, it's awesome. It was a long night ...and I think the guys were ready to get out of here.
good matter needed stopped win
Finally, we were able to get a one-run win in our favor. It was good. We stopped them when we needed to. It's always good to win, no matter if it's by one or 10.
puts start three
It was a big boost. When you start off with three runs, it puts them on the defensive.
driving field game leagues plays runs
The big leagues to me this game is no different than a Double-A, Triple-A game. We still have to play the game the right way, and it's making plays on the field and driving in runs when you get the chance.
double fills home line looks next short
It's a lot of home runs, I think, in a short time. And it looks like a lot more than nine. It's double digits. That makes it special. It fills up the line next to your name.
almost bunch chance guys league minor team
It's almost like you've got a bunch of minor league All-Stars together. It's awesome. Most of these guys were probably going to be on a major-league team anyway. Now we have a chance to all be on the same team.
best feeling guess race team
It's been awesome, man. I don't know what to say about it. I guess the best thing I can say is just to be here and be part of this team and be in a race and be able to contribute, I don't think there's a better feeling than that.
biggest exciting face guy hitting home meant
It's just exciting to face a guy like that, and obviously, hitting a home run's pretty cool. I think the biggest thing is what it meant for us yesterday. Just to be a part of that was awesome.
experience growing watched
It's exciting. I watched him growing up, ... This whole experience is exciting.
league major opportunity playing seen six
It's a very big opportunity. You don't see an opportunity like this come up in major league baseball. In the six years I've been playing in the minors, I don't think I've ever seen it.
great happy team
It was awesome. I was happy for the team. It was a big team win. We pitched well and we had great defense.
operating problems realm systems
It's in the realm of operating systems that the most troublesome problems exist,
