bases game hitters loaded won
We had the bases loaded and we should have won the game right there. The hitters got to be better in the stretch. It's not going to be easy.
ball balls hit innings mccarthy plans ready six throw
Duque didn't throw the ball the way we like him to throw the ball. Most of the balls that got hit were hit hard. We thought he was going to give me four, five, six innings to get McCarthy ready to go. Our plans didn't work.
hit outfield pinch
Ross would play a little outfield this year. We're not going to pinch hit and (play) first base.
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.
ball bottom consistent field good hit hitters kid middle pull swinging trying wish
I think he's swinging at better pitches. He's not trying to pull everything. He's trying to hit the ball into the middle of the field and right field. We wish this kid would be more consistent with that. When this kid is on, he's on for good and we need those hitters at the bottom of the lineup.
chance gets hit kid park stays
If this kid stays healthy, he has a chance to hit a lot more homers, especially in this park. In the summer, this park gets smaller.

Now, we don't have to wait for Thome to hit home runs. Other guys are hitting them for him now.
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.
against guy hit hits pitcher throws toughest triple
Uribe can't hit a guy who throws junk. And then he hits a triple against the toughest pitcher in baseball.
crazy hitting
We're hitting like crazy right now. It's about time. In 2005, it was just pitching, pitching, pitching.
guys hits hitting nine nobody sudden three time tonight walk
When we were really struggling, you didn't see guys get two hits in a game. Any time someone got one hit, one walk -- nobody could put it together. Tonight when we were hitting the ball, one guy got three hits, one had two RBIs, one had two hits, all of a sudden you don't need nine guys to get a hit -- just two or three to get a hit at the right time.
hit mistake
You make a mistake and he's going to hit it out of the ballpark.
