anthem best feeling fly greatest hear national planes scoreboard seen time until wait
Every time I hear the national anthem here, I look over at the center-field scoreboard and I can't wait until those planes fly over it in the World Series, ... You will cry, because that's the greatest feeling. I've seen it before. If I get to do it with this ballclub ... whoa, that's going to be the best feeling ever.
believe best came chances decision guys manager playoff ready sorry weeks
We have two weeks to make a decision on playoff roster. He doesn't have to show me. He's got to show his teammates. You don't have to show me anything. I didn't come here to make friends. I came here to be the best manager I can. You got to make those guys believe you are ready to go. If you're not ready to go, I'm sorry and I'll take my chances in a different way.

Freddy was outstanding. That was one of the best I've ever seen him throw. That's the Freddy we like to see.
best detroit doubt face freddy good himself likes next pitch
Freddy likes to compete. The Detroit Tigers, to me are the best lineup in the Central, no doubt about it. (Garcia) likes to get himself to the next level. He likes to pitch in big games. You want to face good hitters? You face the Detroit Tigers.

We left a lot of people on base. We didn't do what we do best - clutch hitting. We had chances in every inning to score.
arm attack best confidence everybody game guys kid matter months pitching strikes throw time town win won
Two months ago everybody wanted to kill this kid and get him out of town because he was pitching horrible. Jose had always had the best arm on my team. It's a matter of time when he can use that. It's a matter of confidence. This kid won a big game for us and he showed the guys when you have confidence and throw strikes and attack the strike zone, you can win a lot of games.
against bay best city couple doubt expect kansas left lose playing saw tampa team took
I took a couple of peeks up there. Nothing against Kansas City or Tampa Bay, but the way they are playing right now and from what I saw when they left here, I doubt they will lose another game. I don't expect Tampa Bay to do it. I think the best team to do it now is us.
best
It's the best thing I've accomplished in my career.
anyone believe best calling match motion people plays realize seen slow
That's one of the best plays I've ever seen by an infielder. I had people calling me about it. They didn't believe it. When you see it live, you don't realize all of it. But in slow motion in replays, it's one of the best ever. I don't think anyone will match that this year.
best confusing crazy guts mccarthy pitching point problem
It's not a confusing problem for me because I can say McCarthy isn't pitching any more, that's it. I have enough guts to do that. I'm crazy enough to say that. But right now that's not the point. The point is what's the best for the team, not what's best for McCarthy.
best colon effective fastball helps high lay throwing
The best thing about Colon is you know his fastball is coming, but you still can't lay off the high pitch. He's effective with that and that helps make him a winner. When he's locating and throwing strikes, he has a lot of success.
