chance close game gave kept
He kept the game close and gave us the chance to win.
best fight gave guys kenny mean saying
Kenny gave me the best. I'm not saying it because we win. I'm saying it because I mean it. Kenny gave me the best guys to fight for me and this team.
count four gave guys nice walk
When he gave me that answer, it was just walk away and let him pitch. I think it's nice when you have four guys you can count on.
gave good great hit home runs team three
We had great players, but we were not a great team (in 2004). We hit more home runs than anybody, but we gave up more home runs than anybody. We could not play defense, we could not pitch, we could not execute. You don't do those three things in baseball, good luck.
bat chance drop gave great hands himself hit home last man twice
I'm not going to take the bat out of his hands like I did last year. He gave himself up once or twice a game, and that's why I want to drop him down in the lineup. He is a great RBI man and this will give him a chance to hit more home runs.

After Contreras did that, I knew Freddy would come down and try to emulate him. He gave me the innings, too.

It was like a family. It was like the education my father gave me.

The Indians gave us a lot of trouble. It's amazing the way they played. But they didn't beat themselves, we played better.
best bring charlotte help leagues minor ready team
We have to bring the best from the minor leagues to help this team play, ... If they're not ready to play, then they'll have to go back to (Triple-A) Charlotte to learn.
call condition good park wait
The park wasn't in good condition to play. To wait that long wasn't good. It was the right thing to call the game.
fast level moves
To be 19 years old and do what he did at the major-league level that spring, that's impressive. Everything moves fast at this level, and he didn't back down.
ball dirt head hit running saw sudden
The only thing I see, I just put my head down to the right and he was running to the base. All of a sudden I see A.J. running and I'm confused, I don't know what's going on. When someone said the ball hit the dirt and then I saw him running and that's it.
