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.
bottom excited game line win
You get a little more excited for a game like this and when you do well it makes you feel good. But the bottom line is we didn't win the game and that's what we're here to do and not make one person feel good.
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.

confident exciting glad good hitter leagues obviously opening stick year
Obviously if I was in another lineup, I'd probably not be the cleanup hitter. So for me, personally, it's kind of an honor. I'm glad they feel confident in me to put me in that position. For me, it's just exciting to be in the big leagues opening up. Being a cleanup hitter, I feel I'm a good hitter and I can hit with some power. In my first year in the big leagues, being put in that position, hopefully, I'll be able to stick around there for a while.

We've still got games to play and we still have the job of going out trying to win games.

I think it would have a positive economic impact. I think it would mean Wisconsin would finally get a greater share of where the federal dollars are spent.
few games leagues obviously year
I was just kind of like, 'Wow, you know, that's pretty tight. That's awesome. I had a few multihomer games this year down in Double-A, but obviously doing it in the big leagues is so much more special.
