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.

One of the biggest reasons we are here is because of Iguchi. He moves guys over. ... He hits home runs. ... He does everything.

guys hit hitting home wait
Now, we don't have to wait for Thome to hit home runs. Other guys are hitting them for him now.
ball garland good home pay run runs three threw
When you have opportunities and you don't take advantage, you're going to pay for it. I think it was a pretty good ballgame. Garland threw the ball pretty good, Cotts and Politte threw the ball real good. It was just a home run in that inning. Three home runs killed us.
baseball beginning guys home moving run wait
It's not going to be like, two-run home run and wait for the closer. It's going to be baseball from the beginning all the way to the end - squeezes, hit-and-run, moving guys over.
biggest game guys home hopefully maybe ready year
(Sunday) is a big game for us. Maybe the biggest game we're going to play this year and hopefully we come home with a victory. It's not going to be easy. Those guys are going to show up ready to play and ... you never know what's going to happen.
biggest game home hopefully maybe tomorrow
Tomorrow is a big game for us, maybe the biggest game we're going to play this year, and hopefully we come home a victory.
ball believe built fine giving home leaving lose plate sudden worried
I was kind of worried about him leaving the ball around the plate and giving up a home run, and all of a sudden he'd lose everything he built for the whole game. He said he was fine and I believe my pitchers.
against damage guy hit home kid runs says scoreboard stays white
I look at the scoreboard and it says this guy (Thome) hit more home runs against the White Sox than anybody. He's got 18 in this ballpark. Hopefully, he'll hit another 60. I know if this kid stays healthy, he's going to do some damage in Chicago.
balls great hit home middle name plate six throw top wants whatever
If he wants to get it done, I'll throw six balls right down the middle of the plate and let him hit six home runs, and let him do whatever he wants to do. He'll get it. I think it would be great for baseball, great for the game, because now we put another name on top of those names.
baseball best came consistency created fun hitters home numbers produced seen talk watch white
He's one of the best right-handed hitters I've ever seen in my life. His numbers talk for themselves. From the first day he came into the league, he created something new for the White Sox and baseball -- the numbers he put up, that many home runs, that many walks, you don't see that a lot. The consistency was outstanding, really professional. Day in and day out he produced and he was fun to play with, fun to watch hit.
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.
beats carry chance game great home knowing lose win
If you win 94, 96 games, and someone beats you, then you go home knowing that you didn't lose, someone beat you, ... You can't let it get to you. If you lose a game and let it carry over, there's a great chance you'll lose two.
